Book Distribution Drive
Reading is not just about passing examinations; it is about exposure. It broadens the mind and reveals opportunities beyond one’s immediate environment
Our Impact
The AAF Lagos Literacy Initiative

Dedicated, welcoming reading spaces within Lagos public schools curated book collections, structured reading time, and environments that do not make reading feel like a chore.
Book Access & Donation Programme
Targeted book drives ensuring every child, regardless of economic background, has access to age-appropriate, stimulating reading materials.
Read-Aloud Campaigns
Community leaders, professionals, and public figures reading aloud in Lagos schools making literacy aspirational by showing children that the people they admire are readers.
Drop Everything & Read (DEAR) Programme
A structured daily reading period across participating schools where all activity pauses and everyone reads together, thereby normalising reading as a non-negotiable daily habit.
Reading Competitions & Literacy Challenges
Scaling the Alice Ajisafe Award model into Lagos inter-school competitions, literacy challenges and comprehension olympiads that make intellectual achievement visible and celebrated.
Young Writers & Child Author Development
Workshops, mentorship, and publication pathways for young Lagos writers, giving children the tools and confidence to express themselves and to see themselves as creators.
