Before we left for spring break, I went to one of the entrepreneurship lectures in the international center. A woman came in and talked about a company that she had started to read books to kids in developing nations. The organization is called We Love Reading and it was started by Dr. Rana Dajani. They are a grassroots organization that started with Dr. Dajani reading to a group of kids at a local mosque and has grown into so much more. They train people to read to children as a way to keep them interested in school and academics. This program is in 55 countries all around the world, from Syria, to the United States, to Uganda. We Love Reading is an amazing organization that reads to children and distributes books. They have also written their own books on issues such as the environment and religion. I don’t remember the exact numbers, by Dr. Dajani talked a lot about the huge impact that it had on the children and how much they loved coming to listen to her read every week.
