CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS/SPONSORS FOR NOVEMBER EVENT




Hello everyone,
How have you been?
After a successful outing last year, with our spelling bee event which hosted over seventy students from 31 primary schools across Lagos Island local government in December at Aunty Ayo comprehensive school and vocational centre, Ikoyi, we are following through with our mission statement by hosting children from underserved communities in Lagos this year to a day of educational and spelling activities.
This year’s event is a unique one because we will also be partnering with Global peace games for children, on their ‘Play soccer’ sport inspired initiative. www.playsoccer-nonprofit.org  to fuse education and sports as a tool for mental and social development.
Our area of focus this year is Ilunla community in Olorunda local government area, Badagry, Lagos , and we plan to engage the children in spelling activities, writing compositions, reading , as well as sports and games like track and field, soccer, sack race, handball , etc and we will need all the support we can get from well meaning youths , people and organizations.
We need help in these areas :
Volunteers
Nurses/ medical practitioners
Event co-ordinators
Lunch for the children
Gifts for winning children and consolation prizes
Books and reading resources for donation to participants
Sports and games equipment like balls, T-shirts/Jerseys, Sacks
This event is slated to hold on saturday, 24th of November, 2012
Please email us to be part of this on ireadafrica@gmail.com or phone +2348093651431
