The British Malaysian Society (BMS) is proud to be working on its Children's Book Project 2021/2022 where we collect second-hand and new children’s books from libraries, publishers, schools, and other donors in the UK and send these for use by schools, nurseries and other educational groups in rural communities in Malaysia, to help children expand and develop their use of English with confidence and enjoyment. By doing so children can widen their career choices and create greater opportunities to follow their chosen paths.
This is a very important project to the BMS and is entirely consistent with our social responsibility framework and practice. The project aims to improve accessibility to education, consistent with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 4 which is to “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.”
Our partner in Malaysia, is the Kalsom Movement that has introduced a Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) Programme.
The collection process has already commenced as we look to source English fictional and non-fictional reading books, reference and subject books for children of school age. We would very much appreciate your help with the sourcing and collection of books, or by way of a donation. If you have any books you would like to donate, if you would like to make a financial donation , or if you can help in any way in what we believe is an excellent educational cause that can help many thousands of children over time, please contact Stephanie at mybooksuperpower@gmail.com
