Food For Thought Campaign

Educational packs for children in need
during the COVID-19 Lockdown

BK Publishing is calling on all South Africans and our friends around the world to help provide our educational reading resources to disadvantaged children under lockdown. We are partnering with local NGOs who are already involved in food delivery to deliver 2000 reading resource packs to families in impoverished areas.

We are creating these packs in order to make sure that children can continue to learn while under lockdown.

For our part, we’ve marked-down all the items in the pack below cost price and we’ve created home-schooling tips and additional activity sheets. Now, for the rest we need your help.

We’re asking you to sponsor a pack for a family in need for only R90 per pack and help share this message far and wide.

Included in the pack:

  • 1X Supernova magazine (for kids and the whole family)
  • 1X High Five magazine (2-6 years old)
  • 1X Highlights magazine (6-12 years old)
  • 1X Metz and Bop (short story book)
  • Colouring-in sheets and home-schooling tips

How to gift an educational care package

How they will be distributed:

We’ve had requests from Ya Bana Village  in Winterveld, who are supporting 340 families in their community. They will collect and distribute the packs on our behalf. Infinite Hope Foundation has also requested 300 packs to distribute and we are inviting other organisations who can help distribute the packs to contact Siya Simelane on siya@bkpublishing.co.za.

If you would like to purchase packs for families that you are supporting privately, you can send a request to sales@bkpublishing.co.za.

A message from our founder:

 “We believe that reading is not a luxury, it is fundamental to human development. It is the most important tool in creating an educated, empowered and empathetic society. We all know this.”
