Rally to Read purchases literacy materials for
underprivileged schools as well as providing
teacher training in both foundation and
intermediary phases. Teachers are trained once
a week. Rally to Read supports schools for
three years, with the third year being
considered a training re-enforcement year.
Rally to Read staggers roll outs of its
programme across the country in rural areas
which have not traditionally been targeted for
corporate social investment.
Bidvest has been associated with Rally to Read
for 17 years, with its subsidiary McCarthy
providing the vehicles used for each rally.
For the last three years, Bidvest has carried
all the management costs of the rallies so that
all other sponsorship received goes directly to
the schools.
“Rally to Read is an extraordinary story –
of caring, collaboration and hope”
