"Every child should own a hundred books by the age of five. Book Dash gathers creative volunteers to create new African storybooks that anyone can freely read, print, translate and distribute. Then we work with partners to give those books to preschool children to own." 

Owning books improves early learning opportunities, responsive caregiving and builds a child’s long term social and academic prospects. 'Early years book ownership' is a proven approach to laying foundations for literacy and thus growing human potential. Using new models of publishing and distribution, Book Dash increases the number of books in preschool children’s hands and homes. 

Book Dash focuses our work on two key objectives to increase the books in children's hands and homes: 1. Creation and 2. Distribution. We establish systems and partnerships for wide-scale impact. Find out more at www.bookdash.org
