Concept

  • Volunteer-Families (VF), led by father/husband, will visit Recipient-Families (RF) and read to the children assigned to them.
  • RF are families who are unable to read to their children due to various circumstances, e.g. families with illiterate parents.
  • VF will visit RF as a family (i.e. father will go with his children or wife or both) or as a couple (i.e. husband and wife).
