Books that Build Little Voices

Do you remember your favourite childhood book? The stories that sparked your imagination — or those quiet moments reading with someone you loved?

Most children in South Africa grow up without books at home. Many parents and caregivers also can’t read, which means these special moments of connection never happen.

Mikhulu Trust’s wordless picture books change that. They empower parents — regardless of literacy level — to share stories, talk, laugh, and imagine with their children.

With your help, we can raise R500 000 to give 10 beautiful books each to 4,000 families — empowering parents to share stories, joy, and learning at home.

Your donation will:
📘 Put books directly into homes that have none
👩‍👧 Help parents and children build stronger relationships
💛 Qualify you for a Section 18A tax-deduction certificate

Together, we can grow a generation that loves stories — and the time spent sharing them.
