EgoliSquash - Help Me To Read Campaign!<br />
WE NEED YOUR BOOKS!<br />
Egolisquash is an outreach program that uses sport as a catalyst to positively<br />
influence kids. More than 3000 learners from the Inner-city of Johannesburg,<br />
Alexandra and Soweto have been empowered to break the cycle of poverty and<br />
crime in our communities. We want every child in our program to be literate!<br />
For many of our kids this is not easy as they encounter significant barriers<br />
including poverty, stressful home circumstances and parents who themselves<br />
lack basic literacy skills. Most of these kids do not have access to books other<br />
than at school.<br />
As part of our on-going work to increase literacy amongst disadvantaged kids,<br />
Egolisquash is currently running a Help Me to Read Campaign, an appeal to the<br />
wider community to donate books for our libraries that we have setup at our<br />
centres. We need books for kids age: 8 – <strong>19</strong>.<br />
You can help make a difference in these kids’ lives and help them excel in their<br />
academics by donating school books, story books, educational games and<br />
dictionaries.<br />
Donate books now and you could help make our nation more literate today!<br />
Please drop books at<br />
Boys High School – Teresa<br />

Primary School – Leanne<br />
Nursery School / Play School<br />
