Asoka is a community leader working hard to get parents to support their children’s reading.
She has experienced the joy that nightly reading has given to not only her son Aldi, but her as well.
“Education is very important. We want our kids to be better than us. For daily life not to be the struggle that it has been for us. My husband and I hope they will both go on to university.”
Asoka’s son wants to be a teacher. To make sure children from his village keep up with their education.
“We hope Aldi will become a good and successful man. An educated man. I fully support his plan to become a teacher. The main thing that will improve the lives of the children who live in our village is education.”
