We have committed to providing the books needed to start libraries in 15 schools across Istanbul. The book bundles are purchased from Turkish booksellers, which stimulates the economy of a developing nation, and include books in Arabic, Turkish, and English. Each set of books is geared toward children aged 6-14.
Here’s what that looks like by the numbers:
$700 buys 150 books to fill the shelves in one school library
$235 buys 50 books in one language—either Arabic, Turkish, or English
$5 covers the cost of one book
Because we want to outfit 15 schools, Somebody’s Mama will be raising $10,500. Each school has approximately 300 students, which means 4,500 children will benefit from these books. For more information about this project, click here.
