Indigenous Literacy Day
Celebrating stories and language.
Description
Indigenous Literacy Day aims to raise awareness of the need to support literacy in remote and isolated indigenous communities of Australia.
The day also serves as a fundraiser to gather sufficient funds to purchase books and literary resources for kids living in the remotest parts of the country. The books and literary resources help improve the lives and opportunities for indigenous Australians who live in isolated communities.
Indigenous Literacy Day is hosted by the Indigenous Literacy Foundation, an Australian charity founded by members of the Australian Book Industry in 2005.
