BOOKS OF HOPE

Books of Hope is a wonderful nonprofit organization that assigns schools in the United States to schools in Uganda.  US schools then create educational books for their sponsored schools overseas.  There is a $200 participation fee per school.  In the past, when my school district was able to cover the cost of the project, this was one of the most fulfilling projects that my students participated in all year.  Books of Hope does a wonderful job of providing background information for multiple age levels, in order to provide a context for students to better understand their audience.  Students will truly enjoy knowing that they are creating a valuable tools that will affect the lives of others.
