Funda Sonke Chat
FUNda Sonke (isiXhosa for “everyone read”) is a loyalty programme for everyone in the Nal’ibali network. It’s Nal’ibali’s way of saying “thank you” to those who have joined us in bringing the power of stories and reading to children. FUNda Sonke acknowledges the everyday heroes who generously volunteer their time to encourage and support reading in their communities. It is also a place for everyone to share their literacy experiences, successes and challenges, and to support one another.
