At the heart of the iLembe Book Festival is our School Outreach Programme, where we distribute grade-appropriate books, activity booklets, and pens to local primary schools (Grade R–7). Our goal is simple yet powerful: to ensure that every child receives a book to take home, planting the seed for a lifelong love of reading. We aim to collect 3500 books in 2025.

If you would like to contribute (financially or by donating books and other materials), please contact us at: partnerships@ilembebookfestival.co.za
