How it started ...

The foundation stone of our foundation was laid in Stuttgart in 2011, when our founder Christian Neuber left his leading position at a children's book publisher to retire. But he had no intention of taking it easy - instead, he set about promoting reading in schools in Baden-Württemberg. From 2016, our commitment shifted to South Africa and from 2019 also to Namibia.

The following pilot projects were initiated in the Stuttgart and Baden-Württemberg area and some are being successfully continued by other organizations:
