Basadours promotes love of reading, launches ‘Read More’ advocacy project

THE Basadours, a group of volunteer storytellers and reading advocates, recently launched “Project I Love to Read MORE (Moving Onward to Reading Empowerment)” in a bid to further spread the love of reading through storytelling in Cebu and neighboring Visayan provinces.

Basadours chairperson Cris Evert L. Ruffolo said this is to continue the I Love to Read Project, the group’s first step in reviving the love of reading in the form of storytelling sessions.

“Raising awareness about the importance of reading is an ongoing process. We should never stop. We continue to be outspoken about the relevance of building a reading culture because that’s a necessary step in making informed citizens,” said Ruffolo at the sidelines of the project launching last June 28.

Vice Mayor Edgardo Labella and Councilor Noel Wenceslao attended the launching who both expressed their support in the group and the reading/storytelling advocacy.

Organized in February 2012, the Basadours has organized and participated in more than 40 storytelling sessions around Cebu, Bohol, Negros and Iloilo.

With Project I Love to Read MORE, Ruffolo said they aim to double the number of these storytelling sessions by encouraging communities and villages to organize their own sessions.

To make this possible, the group crafted the Basadours’ Storytelling Guide, a comprehensive guide in organizing, hosting, and conducting storytelling sessions. It also contains a book directory that details children’s storybooks written by Filipino authors.

To support the project, storytelling sessions were also organized by Small Wonders Academic Center, San Antonio Learning Institute, University of San Carlos through its Library System, University of San Jose-Recoletos instructor/librarian John Louie Zabala and students, Calape Elementary School (Daanbantayan, Cebu), and Rhonette Abatayo of Discovery Camp (Toddler Circus Class).
