Atowaso Sagata, Vice President of the UPNG Literature Reader Society and her team, organized successful sausage sizzles at Waigani Central Stop and Shop to raise funds for their “Read Wantem Piknini Project.”

The initiative aims to promote literacy among children in local communities. “We believe in empowering children through reading,” Sagata said. “Our goal is to make books accessible to every child, but we don’t operate on external funding.”

The society relies solely on its strategies and initiatives to drive their projects forward. “Each sausage sizzle is an opportunity to engage the community and support our cause,” she added.

 With dedicated volunteers and community support, the society hopes to continue expanding its reach, fostering a love for reading among the younger generation.
