Update on the BTS Book Donation Drive: Reading Gives Hope! Books Bring Sunshine


Reading Gives Hope Book Drive

Reading Gives Hope • Books Bring Sunshine

Nasa Pagbasa ang Pag-Asa • May Dalang Liwanag ang Mga Libro

Ing Pamamasa Babye Yang Pag-asa  • Deng Libru Babye Lang Sala 

 

Reading Gives Hope is a book donation drive inspired by BTS—

especially Jung Hoseok aka J-Hope—and their positive message

of diversity, inclusion, hope, and loving oneself.

 

In July 2020, three Pearl ARMY, Zarah Gagatiga, Triccie Cantero, and Ellinor Feriol met in a BTS FB group where they soon realized that they shared more than a love for Bangtan. Passionate advocates of books and reading, the three Titas mustered up the funds and mobilized their social networks to make this project a reality. After all, books are a wonderful way to share the message of the Bangtan Boys with others.

 

Recipient for Cycle 1

Peace Kamp is a non-profit organization focused on educating the Ayta children of Barangay Sapang Uwak in Pampanga.

Their volunteer efforts are anchored on community- and capacity-building, enabling hope to drive growth individually and collectively.

 

Mission

Donate 20 book bundles to 20 Ayta children in Sapang Uwak through the active community-building program of Peace Kamp.

 


Book Bundles

Five book bundles have been carefully curated into themes that reflect the messages of BTS. The books in each bundle have won awards conferred by the Philippine Board on Book for Young People (PBBY) and the National Book Development Board (NBDB).

 

OT7 Book Bundle: Community

JHope Book Bundle: Joy & Sunshine

VMin Book Bundle: Family & Friendship

JinKook Book Bundle: Inclusivity

NamGi Book Bundle: Diversity

 

A copy of Atin Cu Pung Singsing, a board book, is included in the JHope, VMin, JinKook, and NamGi book bundles. The OT7 Book Bundle is recommended for anyone who wishes to gift a school, library, or reading center with a brilliant, well-rounded startup collection of storybooks.
