We celebrate World Read Aloud Day every year by writing a special story in all 11 SA languages. This story is shared far and wide and we encourage caregivers to read this story to their children on the day.

This is where Nal’ibali’s work on the ground comes to life, bringing the love of stories to children all over the country.
Some of our campaigns
World Read Aloud Day
Story Bosso
South Africa has a rich tradition of oral storytelling. Story Boss saw South Africans nationwide putting their storytelling skills to the test!
Libraries
In a bid to increase library memberships we partnered with provincial libraries across the country, raising awareness to the benefits of belonging to a local library. People could also sign up online and more than 25,000 were signed up for library cards.
Story Champions
We run quarterly competitions to encourage children to read all the stories in each edition of the Nal’ibali newspaper supplement. Prizes of books in any choice of SA language are given to lucky winners.
Literacy Month
Literacy day and heritage month is celebrated in September and each year, Nal’ibali is celebrates the rich diversity of culture in South Africa, by reawakening a love of African stories
