Amazon is focusing on promote digital reading around the world and has established a new program called the Kindle Reading Fund to meet this goal.
The foundation will be in charge of Kindle e-reader donation, Fire tablets and e-books to various recipients, such as reading programs in developing nations. A very interesting initiative to promote reading and thus also introduce this type of technology.
To make sure your devices arrive to the hands of the people In need, the tech titan has partnered with Worldreader, a non-profit organization that provides e-books to children and families in developing countries to promote reading.
The two already worked jointly in previous projects, including the provision of materials for reading digital books to 61 libraries in Kenya.
Apart from what are the programs for encourage readingThe Kindle Fund will also supply both devices and ebooks to schools, libraries, hospitals and other non-profit organizations around the world. And while you continue to introduce new projects, you will continue to manage previous Amazon ones.
This will allow the company to formally accept donation requests from this type of organization to schools. In fact, if you have knowledge of an association that is interested in this type of program, you can contact the company through the website Kindle Reading Fund. This program is valid for outside the United States and you will receive a response from Amazon in about ten days.
