Donation of Books from Care Bears Preschool Curriculum Program

Donation of Books from Care Bears Preschool Curriculum Program:

In November this year (2006), The Care Bears preschool curriculum program, You're Never Too Young to Care, in conjunction with the annual celebration of National Care Week organized a special event at Malls where the community was invited to donate children’s books.  The 2006 National Care Week celebration kicked off with a national "Share-A-Story" event.

 As part of this event, a book donation drive was held on November 4-5 at selected mall locations throughout the country to encourage children to spread the love of reading. The donation program took place at 87 malls. Each participating mall location had a book donation collection site. New and gently used books appropriate for children ages pre-school through primary grades were collected. 

Through this event, Develop Africa had the opportunity to receive a donation of books from 2 malls in Knoxville TN.   Books will be distributed to children and schools in Africa through our Million Book Project

Families in Sierra Leone face unprecedented challenges due to rising costs. Inflation makes it difficult for them to afford basic food staples such as rice, cooking oil, and onions.

Extending a helping hand can alleviate a significant burden and provide essential relief to the less fortunate.
