When I went back to my hometown I realized that I have grown big literary big. I gained weight hahaha kidding aside. My brother Jan Irvin actually ask me to help in his on going project in building a library in the school where he is working. I suddenly realized that it was the same school where my mother work when I was studying and I remembered they never had a library and so that was the birth of this campaign to help them build the library that was long overdue.
So I am appealing to my dear readers to help donate a book. We are also accepting cash so we could buy some books they need. I strongly believe that when we all work together we can help educate every children who are willing not just to read but also willing to gain knowledge. I also believe that the knowledge they gained by reading lots and lots of books is their weapon as they grow. Together, through books or cash we share, we solve literacy problem. Together, through these books, we are helping these children to dream more and dream big.
I remember when I was being thought by my parents on how to read, we use old story books. I thought then that I am unlucky because I am using an old book, the pages is definitely tearing apart. However I was wrong. I am actually lucky because I have a book that I was able to use. I am lucky because of that book I was able to dream and to succeed.
After this project we would like to continue searching for schools to build their library. Our first beneficiary is Colalo Elementary School located at Barangay Colalo Mankayan Benguet. Colalo is actually near the boundary of Mankayan Benguet and Cervantes Ilocos Sur.
For our donors within Metro Manila, I can meet you at any MRT or LRT stations.
To all interested parties (local and international) who would like to share their books and or donate a cash please email me at wsa.charlton@gmail.com
