Tell us briefly about your work with and for children and youth
Our organization, We Are Bibli, is a non-profit dedicated to writing children’s storybooks to empowering children and youth through accessible, quality education. With a team of over 200 youth volunteers across Canada, we create original, culturally relevant children’s books and educational games to help young learners in underserved communities thrive.
Last year, we raised funds to send L-pads (learning tablets) loaded with our storybooks and games to children in Kenya, collaborating with L-Pad Africa to ensure the devices reached those most in need. We were able to raise $600 and send 20 L-pads to Kenyan children. This year, we’re expanding our efforts to the Philippines, where we plan to distribute L-pads in partnership with Lidha’s Cradle, a local non-profit. Our work centers on bridging educational gaps by providing essential learning tools, fostering a love for reading, and helping children develop critical thinking skills. We believe that by supporting children’s growth and learning, we’re helping to create brighter futures for communities around the world.
