National Book Store's #ReadOutLoudChallenge


The love for reading has been at the core of National Book Store’s advocacy for the past 75 years. Now, they’re inviting every single one of us to share and support this love with the #ReadOutLoudChallenge!

Here’s how to do it:

1. Pick your favorite line from any book.
2. Take a video of yourself reading it out loud. Upload it on Facebook and / or Instagram.
3. Post a video of yourself reading an excerpt from your favorite book with the caption: #ReadOutLoudChallenge accepted! Reading out loud my favorite lines from my favorite book ____________ by___________ to spread the love for reading and to support @nbsalert. Now, I challenge @name1, @name2, @name3 to do the same.
**Don't forget to tag at least three people to do the challenge after you :)


THE READ OUT LOUD CHALLENGE ADVOCACY:


For every 75 videos uploaded, the National Book Store Foundation will set up 1 school library in a community here in the Philippines until the goal of 7,500 videos or 100 school libraries is reached! That’s 100 new school libraries for thousands of Filipino children. Filled with quality books, these will nurture their mind, inspire their creativity, and support their education. These libraries can provide hundreds of opportunities for fostering literacy and learning among Filipino children in various communities nationwide. Help us build a stronger reading culture in the country.

While the NBS Foundation regularly builds and sets up libraries for thousands of students, this campaign isn’t just meant for them  – it also serves to remind everyone on social media about the power and importance of reading. Let's help promote the love for reading, while building libraries!
