Tasmania Bike for Bibles January 2025

I'm raising funds for the Bible Society and I'd love your support.

I'm fundraising for the Bible Society by challenging myself to ride 330 kms over 5 days across Tasmania. The funds I raise will support Bible Society's tax-deductible project in Rwanda to help students learn to read!

The 2022 census indicates a 22.3% illiteracy rate in Rwanda, with a notable gender gap. Rural districts, like Gatsibo, face a higher illiteracy burden, including spillover effects such as teenage pregnancies. Essential improvements involve improving the curriculum, providing teacher training, upgrading school infrastructure, and increasing community engagement in education.

Bible Society Australia is partnering with African Enterprise Rwanda in implementing a literacy project seeking to improve literacy among students and ensure a brighter future for all Rwandans.  The project aims to help Rwanda keep up with global education standards, and strives for outcomes like improved Kinyarwanda literacy, enhanced pre-primary learning, strengthened education management, and coordinated literacy activities.

Will you help us provide improved literacy to students in Rwanda today?
