It's International Literacy Day!
Why is literacy important?
Literacy is at the heart of basic education for all, and essential for eradicating poverty, reducing child mortality, curbing population growth, achieving gender equality and ensuring sustainable development, peace and democracy.*
You can help us provide projects that will change lives.
There are many, many adults in the rural villages we operate in that haven't had the opportunity to learn to read and write. Indeed most of the adult population is illiterate. Many children don't go to school regularly, and they all need extra learning support due to lack of resources in schools.
How can I help?
Support our Adult Literacy and English for Children projects this year in West Africa.
Just £10 will help provide two dictionaries for use in rural villages.
£25 will help provide notebooks and pencils for children.
£150 will help us provide teachers and ensure the projects last.
Our supporters receive regular updates on their progress learning to read and write, and exclusive access to the Friends' section of our website.
Please give your support today by sending a cheque payable to 'Abene Karantaa' to Abene Karantaa, 43 St Peters Road, South Croydon, CRO 1HP.

IT help needed
We've had a donation of old computer equipment today.
We need someone experienced in IT to check over the 9 hard drives, and 5 flat screen monitors, check they are fully functioning and get the best out of them before we take them over to Senegal.
These computers will make a huge difference to the internet and library centre we want to create and hopefully also provide computers in schools.
Can you help? Please get in touch through the Contact Us page on our website at www.abenekarantaa.org/contact-us. Thank you!
