In late 2006, approximately 3,000 children’s books were sent to Nepal. These books were donated by numerous individuals, schools, libraries and community centres (including Ravenswood School, Clovelly Public School, Waverly Community Centre - PlayGroup, Waverly and Randwick Library) and by some leading publishers and bookshops (including Harper Collins, Hachette Livre, Random House, Pan Macmillan, Lindfield Children’s Bookshop) and a number of market research companies (including Jigsaw Strategic Research and the Leading Edge – Melbourne)
 

These books will be used in each of the Early Childhood Development Centres and later in the Secondary School of our project. But there were so many, that we have distributed many to other schools and organisations in Kathmandu
 

The benefactors include Educ-Nepal - which runs an informal schooling project, Peace Star School, the Reading Room – a small library where children and adults in Boudha can come and learn English and read, Mahendra Boudha Secondary School, Shree Chandrodaya Lower Secondary School, Shree Basanta Primary School,  to name just a few!
