Spreading Joy Through Books

概要


Spreading Joy Through Books "We’re so glad you’re here! We can’t wait to work together and spread the magic of books in your community. Now it’s time to stop only imagining young children in your community with books in their hands and smiles on their faces and actually work towards making it a reality. The Book Dash team will guide you in selecting a few Book Dash books that reflect the context and realities of the children in your community and help you communicate with a local printer that can print up to 1,000 books. You will also receive the necessary resources to identify partners in your community so that the children receive these books to own, absolutely free." - Zanri Kritzinger

You can manage the project at your own pace! We suggest 3-7 days to understand the Book Dash printing process and map out your plan. 3-7 days to find a reliable printer. 7-14 days to visit local organisations to decide where/how to distribute the books. 7-14 days to allow for the books to be printed and distributed. 14-21 days to document your process.


If you’re reading this and can see the ‘funding available’ sign in your region, you might be eligible to receive all the necessary funding required to implement 'Spreading Joy Through Books' in your local community.

Once you've completed your ChangeX 30 Day Challenge successfully and funding has been allocated to you, you should follow 'Step 1' of the accessible toolkit under resources (this includes detailed instructions of how to reach Book Dash).

We will set up a 30-minute introduction call where we will explain the process, timelines, resources you’ll need and what to get in place in order to document every step of the process so that you can replicate the programme again and again. We also will discuss how to identify potential distribution partners in your community that will benefit from the programme and this will also be an opportunity for you to ask all the questions you might have.
