Using e-readers, mobile phones and other digital technology, we reach readers in over 25 countries, providing them with over 8,000 book titles in over 41 languages from Afrikaans to Swahili. We currently work with over 140 publishers to acquire and digitize the most compelling and relevant content for our readers; 70% of our library comes from African and Indian publishers.
Worldreader's Development and Institutional Giving Team works to expand our programming and reach even more children with critical reading materials, including through identifying innovating new partners and donors, and exciting opportunities to reach more communities.
