Books for blind children

For Vakoka Vakiteny, every child has a right to read books and to own its own book. Therefore, we have established cooperation with the center for schools for the blind in Madagascar (FoFaJa). Together we want to translate some of our books in Braille (writing for the blind). First we will start with the books “Rebila” and “Dangaligny sy Konaky”, but our aim is to translate every book we publish into Braille.



We really want to give these blind children this great gift, and we are sure they will appreciate it very much. We have already found a translator and made sure that the necessary machines are at hand at the school for the blind. The only thing we still need is money. For € 1000 we can have 300 books printed (translation included). That makes € 3,3 per book or NOK 26,5.
