Book Dash

Cape Town, South Africa
View project summary
"Our vision is for every child to own one hundred books by the age of five. To that end, Book Dash gathers creative volunteers to create new African storybooks that anyone can freely print, translate and distribute. We also print and distribute the books to families and children across the country for free."
