BENEFITING
“Read Me 100 Stories!” is a national program to stimulate reading with children in kindergartens and family. Initiated in September 2020 by Asociația OvidiuRo*, the mission is to transform the approximately 4,500 public kindergartens in Romania into Kinder Libraries by 2025. The estimated budget reaches €9 million.
Each public kindergarten has an average of 100 children and 5 educators. The program equips every kindergarten in Romania with age-appropriate books and trains the teachers in effective literacy development techniques.
So far, through online seminars, OvidiuRo has reached 3,000 teachers in 2,000 kindergartens, and got children’s books in the hands of 70,000 children (with a staff of 10).
* Asociatia OvidiuRo was established in 2004 and has raised over €12.5 million for various social programs designed to give disadvantaged children a chance to succeed in school and become active contributing members of Romanian society.
The money raised during the first two editions of our charity ball (2019-2020) benefited children ages 3 to 12 from placement centers in and around Bucharest who were invited to attend Art Safari’s educational art workshops and art exhibitions. The workshops were designed to improve children’s understanding of shapes, textures, patterns, dimensions and the environment while encouraging them to appreciate art and the art world.
