Education is just too important to have any barriers to access.
Prime Minister of Jamaica, Andrew Holness, O.N., M.P.
"The only way to achieve equity and the level of success that we want to achieve is to establish mechanisms that will give every child, regardless of their station in life and the community from which they spring, an opportunity to start on an even basis."
Karl Samuda, Minister with responsibility for Education, Youth and Information, Jamaica
We believe we can make a difference one child at a time. ROI builds new libraries or supplements existing ones so that school-aged children in Jamaica can have a reliable source of high-quality books to read in their communities and homes.
"While only 37% of Jamaicans are children, almost one of every two (44.5%) Jamaicans who lives in poverty is a child. Children in rural areas are the most affected with more than a quarter (25.6%) of them living in poverty."
