Annual Reading Festival
Reading and literacy underpin everything that BiblioWorks strives to achieve here in one of the most impoverished parts of Bolivia. Every year, we spread the joy of reading during our annual Reading Festival in the city of Sucre.
The festival transforms the lives of children and families.The festival gathers 2,000 students annually and more than 20 organizations participate as presenters.
With your help, this event can continue to grow and have an even greater positive impact.
