THE CAMPAIGN FOR GLOBAL EDUCATION


Visit the website of for the Global Campaign for Education at www.campaignforeducation.org/bigread to add your name to the many supporters promoting quality education. 75 million children are out of school globally. 1 out of 4 women can't read.

I first heard about the campaign when a friend of mine who works for a Non-Government Organization, and a strong advocate for education, posted a link in her Facebook blog to invite others to join in the BigRead campaign.

You can help the campaign not only by signing up but also by doing the following:

1 – Telling your friends and forwarding this message:

Add your name to the Big Read, and add your name to those who want to end illiteracy. Join Nelson Mandela, Natalie Portman, Desmond Tutu, Alice Walker and many others in this campaign – The Big Read. Visit www.campaignforeducation.org/bigread to add your name and find out more.

2 – Adding your story to the Big Read

The
ONE CAMPAIGN has also teamed up with the Global Campaign for Education (GCE) to support The Big Read in its campaign for literacy and quality education. They have also posted a link promoting this in Facebook .

Like I always say, every little bit helps...
