We're Building Classrooms to Celebrate the 10,000th Daily News Lesson!
Daily News lessons are the most popular study materials we have at Engoo. Students who use them not only learn English, they also learn about people, communities and stories from around the world.
We're thankful for the positive effect Daily News has had on learners, and this month, we're celebrating the release of our 10,000th lesson!
In honor of this milestone, we're running a campaign to donate up to five classrooms at schools in the Philippines. With your help, we want to support education not just online, but in person for a new generation of students.
About the Daily News
Daily News lessons are chosen by more students than any of our other materials. They've been used as part of university entrance exams, and we've even published them in a book for the Japanese market.
Although you can find tools similar to Daily News on other platforms, we were the first online language school to make English lessons based on news stories, and we're still the best at it!
To celebrate the release of our 10,000th article, we're continuing our company's tradition of donation campaigns to improve the lives of people in need.
About the campaign
This time, we're focusing on the Philippines, the home of many of our excellent tutors and the place where our Daily News service first started.
While many people associate the Philippines with its beautiful beaches and popular holiday destinations, life for many rural students is far from a vacation. These children often attend schools that don't have the resources and facilities found in other parts of the world. That's why the goal of this campaign is building classrooms where they're needed most.
Here's how it works:
For every 10,000 lessons booked using Daily News as the study material, we will make a donation to the Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation to build a classroom in an area that badly needs it.
And we won't stop with just one. Our goal is to go up to 50,000 lessons booked using Daily News materials within the campaign period. That means we could potentially build five classrooms!
The campaign will run from June 24 to June 28. To reach our goal, we need help from our excellent community of learners. What do you need to do? Simply book lessons with your favorite tutors and select Daily News as your study material. That's all there is to it!
Once the campaign ends, the Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation will send us regular updates about the status of the classrooms we are able to build. And of course, we will share these updates with you through our social media channels (which you can find here and here).
We can do it!
Engoo has a history of supporting communities in need, and we're excited to continue that tradition with this newest campaign.
We feel that helping children enjoy a better education experience is the perfect way to celebrate the continued success of our Daily News materials. We hope you'll join us in making these goals into real and positive change in the world.
