..WHO INSPIRES US?

The boy who reads: A story of hope from a viral photo

The boy in the photo--13-year-old Mark Jayvee "MJ" Mojon-- said that he wants to serve as an inspiration to other street kids.

Madalas siyang makiusap dito na makibasa. Hindi naman abala kaya hinahayaan na lang namin, the store manager told
Yung ibang bata, may mga libro pero hindi naman po nila binabasa. Itatapon nila. Sayang lang din naman po yung pinaghirapan ng mga magulang nila," he said. "Samantalang po ako, wala. Gusto ko pong maging inspirasyon sa mga batang katulad kong pulubi, kahit na mahirap, pursigidong magtapos ng pag-aaral po. Ok lang po kahit madilim sa bahay at gasera lang ang gamit nababasa ko padin naman po ang mga letra. Gusto ko pong maging piloto at mag aaral po ako ng mabuti. He promised.

We welcome your book donations!

Donated books must be in excellent condition. Think of the kind of book youd give to your best friend or your mother to read. That is, almost brand new, something someone would be excited to receive and unwrap as a present. Books that are missing pages, discoloured, smelly or have been sitting in storage for years are not suitable and have to be recycled which costs us money.
