Next year will mark the 30th anniversary of our Book of the Year Awards, and the grant from Ecclesiastical is transformational. Winning this fund enables Children’s Books Ireland to continue on our mission to make books central to every child’s life, and will have a profound, positive impact on the lives of thousands of children all over Ireland.

What our donation will help fund
The funding would enable us to extend our reach to an additional 20 schools each year for a three year period. Assuming 25 students per class and three classes per school would benefit, this project would benefit a minimum 1,500 students per year and 4,500 students over a three year period. It would allow us to bring an administrator to the project who could devote time to gauging the impact of the scheme through before and after surveys and gathering testimonials; this evidence is crucial both in assessing the effectiveness of our work and garnering future support in order to make the awards and shadowing scheme sustainable.
