Liyema Peter, a Nal'ibali beneficiary from Zwide, Gqeberha, shared with us this amazing message on how Nal'ibali has impacted her life.

 

A heartfelt thank you to Nal'ibali
 

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the profound impact your stories and initiatives have had on my life. As a child, my mother, a domestic worker, would bring home Nalibali newspapers, introducing me to the magical world of reading. Your engaging stories sparked a love within me that has only grown stronger over the years.

 

                             

                                                                                                                                                   

 

Today, as a university student pursuing a B.Ed at Walter Sisulu University, I continue to cherish the joy of reading that Nalibali instilled in me. Your efforts to promote literacy and a culture of reading in South Africa have made a tangible difference in my life, and I'm sure, in the lives of many others.

Thank you for your dedication to sharing stories in all South African languages, making reading accessible and enjoyable for everyone. Your work has inspired a new generation of readers, and I'm honoured to be among them. Please keep sharing the gift of stories and reading with our communities.
