An army of change-makers creating a generation of youth and children who enjoy and respect books and foster social responsibility, civic engagement and enhanced psycho-social well-being through the establishment of a library in every neighborhood in the world. By joining this collaboration you can implement the We Love Reading training into your programming and show the story of the We Love Reading ambassador Asmaa Rashed in the multi-award winning film The Neighborhood Storyteller to engage your audience.
