How is that book "The Girls of Atomic City"? I recently saw it in the bookstore and was interested because I lived in Oak Ridge in the '70s because my dad worked at Y-12.

I am enjoying it. She follows the stories of a number of women who worked at Oak Ridge. One of them is a chemist who worked in Y12. I have an uncle who worked at Los Alamos and I am a chemist as well so the book adds to the story of the Manhattan Project from a different angle.

Very cool. I will have to check the book out. :)

I love this idea and what a great cause!!

I love this!!! Let's do this!

Initiative seems interesting but why do they need our postal addresses? I am always cautious about giving information to unknown people.

The boys in the boat
Don't know how many pages as not numbered by pages went from 7%to12%

No page numbers in the boys in the boat. Read from 12% to 18% last night.

How awesome is this! I love this!

Hi Donna,

I'm part of World Education's staff. You can actually just look up the hard copy of your eBook and use that page count for any eReading you do.

Thanks for reading and keep up the hard work!

I apologize for injecting a cynical/questioning note here, but where, exactly, is this $1 per page coming from? And how, exactly, is this money being used to help people who cannot read? How much is going to PR/admin of this project, which appears to be designed primarily to make people who enjoy reading for pleasure feel they are doing something for the greater good and possibly to encourage them to donate $$ themselves. Those are worthy goals, but wouldn't the money be better spent directly funding literacy programs?

Hi Stephanie,

Thanks for your comment! The money comes directly from a donor, who agreed to match pages to dollars up to our initial goal of $20,015, specifically to give money to our literacy programs in the 24 countries we work in. Now that we're beyond the goal, we're asking people to read to spread awareness and help us create an international coalition of people who are passionate about literacy. We hope to build enough momentum through this campaign to get some media attention, which will ultimately put pressure on our governments to make education a bigger priority in their policies and in their budgets.

#Pages4Progress is a form of advocacy that will not only connect and inform a wider group of people around global education issues, but will also contribute to an international effort to make primary education a major issue in connection with the next set of UN Development goals, as the MDGs end in September of this year.

Funding is still an aspect of the campaign, but we don't require those who log pages to donate. We would love to have their support, but we're primarily interested in changing the statistics about illiteracy around the world. An aspect of this could be helping support our programs, but there are many other ways! For example, we'd love for everyone who's engaged in #Pages4Progress to share information about the campaign and it's issues on social media to spread the word across their networks and communities. Illiteracy is a global problem, which means it needs a global solution. You can be a part of that!

If a reader would like to donate, whether to the match fund for #Pages4Progress or to World Education in general, their funds go directly to funding literacy programs and other education initiatives in the United States and around the world. Private donations are typically used for innovative projects! You can see our Annual Report for a full financial overview.

Hey! I was just wondering why World education chose to make people READ to make funds, especially that the donor has no proof that people have actually read 20000 pages and that they are not making up immense numbers in the initiative of wanting to make a difference/help.

Hi Tala,
That's a great question! We chose to use reading as a tool to raise awareness about literacy in addition to funds. We wanted the money raised to have a double impact: supporting our programs, which work to improve literacy rates worldwide, and contributing to the larger national and international dialogue about the importance of literacy and primary education, as expressed in MDG2.

As you might know, the Millennium Development goals expire in September of this year, and many nations are far from achieving their target levels of primary education and literacy. On the one hand, our programs directly contribute to improving these levels. On the other hand, you deciding that literacy is important and discussing it on social networks, at your job, your school, with your friends, your co-workers, your and family increases the likelihood that nations and policymakers worldwide will take notice. You might think that one post for #Pages4Progress might not make much of a difference, but we know that even one post adds to the global voice calling for literacy as an international priority. The more posts made, the louder that voice becomes.

Besides increasing awareness of global literacy issues, we want to encourage people to read! 25% of Americans did not read a book last year, so we're using this campaign to encourage ALL adults and children to renew their love for reading.

Whether you read 1 page or 50,000 pages, you and the rest of our readers make a tremendous impact -- simply by being engaged!

I started logging my pages, & linked #Pages4Progress to my twitter, so hopefully some of my friends will start participating as well. What a fun and easy way to support a great cause :)

just saw this program today, will start logging my daily read pages for this group

This is an awesome program to increase literacy by just entering in the number of pages you've read this summer. I know many big readers, that far surpass me, I know this will strike a chord. Please join me.

I'm reading We Were Liars (terrific!) and continuing to log my #pages4progress - looks like they've almost reached their goal of 2 million pages read.

Does anyone know if they will be doing this initiative again?

Hi Tracy,

Thanks for being interested in #Pages4Progress and World Education. We were thrilled to surpass the original challenge of 20,000 pages read and $20,000 donated. We're hoping other donors will step-up for future challenges as this one was so very successful!

If you have any leads for ways readers can hep support our ongoing work, please let us know. Visit www.worlded.org to learn more.

I followed the link for this charity. The deadline was in September. Does anyone know whether or not this charity will be run again?
