This year also also marks momentous milestones for the Santa Shoebox Project and Book Dash — each distributing their one millionth Santa Shoebox and book.
“Education has been a cornerstone of our programme since its inception. We are extremely proud to be able to provide educational and recreational books of the highest quality to these young children through this collaborative effort,” says Pieter Twine, General Manager of MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet.
Book Dash’s innovative model presents partner organisations with the opportunity to fund a Book Dash event — a 12-hour sprint that sees volunteer creative teams write, illustrate, design and edit books at no cost.
