Our Purpose
• To inspire a reading culture: Many rural students have limited access to books beyond their school textbooks. Our club opens the door to imagination, knowledge, and lifelong learning.
• To build strong foundations: Reading improves language skills, comprehension, and critical thinking — essential for education and life.

• Low literacy challenges: In some rural areas of Cambodia, students struggle with reading fluency and comprehension because of limited resources.
• Limited access to books: Many children grow up without storybooks at home, so they only read in class — and sometimes not at all outside of school.

Benefits for Students
• Improved literacy skills: Regular reading sessions help children read faster, understand better, and enjoy learning.
• Boosted confidence: Children who read more often speak more confidently and share their ideas better.
• Broader horizons: Storybooks let them “travel” to different places, times, and cultures without leaving the classroom.

Community Impact
• Family and community involvement: The Reading Club can also inspire parents to value and support reading at home.
• Creating future leaders: Literate, confident children can become the next generation of problem-solvers and changemakers in Cambodia.

Why Our School Center Leads This
• We believe that education is more than memorizing lessons — it’s about curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
• The Reading Club is a safe, joyful space where children discover the power of words and stories.
• By starting here, we can model for other communities that a culture of reading changes futures.
