The "Tale of 10,000 Textbooks" is growing in the telling, and the beneficiaries are young people in Cambodia who hope to learn English!
First NEAS and Voice have received an amazingly generous donation from Jacob Micelli of Bookery, with a large shipment of English language learning and literacy textbooks and resources, valued at over $150,000!
Next, Julian Wilson and the team at ICTE-UQ agreed to support the delivery of the books between Australia and Cambodia; a huge benefit given the weight of the books and the cost of the freight!
... now we can share that Cambodian based and NEAS Quality Endorsed ELT provider Australian Centre for Education (ACE) through their Principal Administrator Ashley Irving, has agreed to provide safe warehousing of the books prior to distribution.
Voice Executive Director Kristy Sanderson stated that ... "this donation is such a signficant one and what is also as humbling, is how NEAS' members are reachign out to help. Thank you!"
