Many of Romanian’s youth learn english in school, but the only other experience they have with it is through television and movies.  With Romania’s accession into the EU just around the corner, learning english is extremely important for future economic and social development.

The organization A Thousand Books sends books to volunteer teachers teaching english anywhere in the world.  They have sent thousands of books to Peace Corps Volunteers in Romania since 2004, including Reghin.  They are always in need of donations to help with the high costs of shipping books overseas.  Please take the time to check out their site and help our cause.
