Most people don’t expect a suitcase full of teacher record books to change the world. But we’ve never done things the usual way. I found a Staples going out of business and stocked up on every one of these because THIS is how we invest in women: by preparing their future classrooms, training literacy coaches, and handing them the tools to track every mama’s learning journey. These simple planners will end up in the hands of powerful local leaders — our next cohort of literacy coaches — who will lead hundreds of mamas into reading, writing, and confidence. For just $1,500, you can help launch a brand new literacy center and get moms learning this year instead of waiting. Unexpected impact. Unstoppable women. Want to be part of it?

What did you do in the last couple months? Odukai mamas answer casually: "Oh you know...dug 2 pit latrines, built 2 dishracks, 2 animal houses, 2 tippy taps, 2 full new huts, hung a clothesline, planted a live fence, painted 2 houses, plastered 2 houses....oh and planted 32 kitchen gardens. WAIT! Did you mean what did we learn book wise? Because alllsssooo 1 of our mamas learned to recognize her letters, 1 learned to write her letters and 1 learned to write simple words. 1 ALSO mastered reading and writing all together." 90 women. All by hand. Working together. Side by Side. Basically, the definition of amazing. (this is what happens when you support a literacy center). (fb)
