- Sunlight Ink Publishing has teamed up with the Ginigoada Foundation, Books4PNGKids and UNICEF to support children, teenagers and adults of Papua New Guinea to develop their reading skills.
- The Ginigoada Foundation provides training and skills development which includes literacy. They support the disadvantaged and less fortunate in our society who otherwise do not have access to learning these much needed life skills.
- The Ginigoada Foundation was introduced to SunLight Ink’s children's books in Papua New Guinea and have since made contact and requested to use them in their training programs.
- A previous call out has impulsed this crowdfunding campaign....
- To start off, they have asked for 500 copies of each of the three children’s books currently published:
- I am beauty-full just for being me
- Whoops is one of my favourite words
- My number 1 job
- However if we do not reach enough money to send the 1500 books we will send as many as we can if we can reach the minimum goal of $10,000 (about 800+ books depending on all the fees we will be charged (crowdfunding charges, payment charges, Australian tax, shipping and of course the production fee at the time of production etc etc)
- If we manage to raise the bar and collect $30000 - we will make sure to send as many books as this will cover.
- We will post regular updates on the book production and delivery to our Facebook page should the campaign be successful and we can go ahead .... Together we can make it happen.

- Illiteracy is wide spread amongst society in Papua New Guinea and we are committed to provide more and more opportunities for new students young and old, to learn how to read and write.
- We are a small self-publishing company and need your help so that we can bring these books to corners of this world where reading and writing is not yet a assumed skill.
- Our books are not just any kind of books - all three books hold a deep message that will support these children and adults not to just learn to read and write but to also receive the support to know how to change their outlook on live. This is why these books have been requested by the Ginigoada Foundation and Books4PNGKids. READ ABOUT THE BOOKS HERE

- Raising enough money for the 1500 books would mean Ginigoada can provide the opportunity for the many pupils to read along.
- Should we raise more money than what’s needed for 1500 books – means we will send as many books as can be covered.
- Money raised will be used to print the books and send them straight from the printery to Papua Guinea.... LET MAKE THIS HAPPEN!

- At SunLight Ink Publishing we embrace this wonderful opportunity to initiate this crowdfunding initiative in support of the much-needed services provided by Ginigoada for the people of Papua New Guinea.
- Supporting humanity on every level is our commitment and starting with the under privileged is one way to bring change to a world that clearly is struggling.
