How Humanitix built dedicated libraries that bear our name

When you book a ticket through Humanitix, you're not just creating social impact in the abstract - you're directly funding libraries that proudly carry the Humanitix name. We're thrilled to share the story of two very special places where children, families, and entire communities gather daily in libraries built specifically through the continued support of our community.

Meet your libraries: real places, real impact

Bà Râu Primary School in Ninh Thuận, Vietnam, and Ranir Bazar Government Primary School in Sylhet, Bangladesh - these aren't just names in a report. These are actual schools where the Humanitix name means something profound to hundreds of children and their families.

Every morning, children walk into these libraries that exist because you chose to book your concert tickets, conference passes, and community events through our platform. These dedicated Humanitix libraries stand as permanent testaments to what's possible when business serves a greater purpose.

Vietnam: the Bà Râu Primary School Library

In the heart of Ninh Thuận province, Vietnam, the children of Bà Râu Primary School have something many of their peers could only dream of - a library filled with books in their native Vietnamese language, created through Humanitix's partnership with Room to Read.

This isn't just a room with books. It's a vibrant, child-friendly space where:

• Local stories and Vietnamese culture come alive through carefully selected literature
• Children who might never have owned a book can borrow and explore freely
• Teachers have the resources they need to make reading an engaging, integral part of daily learning
• Families can see their investment in their children's education reflected in tangible resources

Room to Read's work across Vietnam demonstrates their commitment to culturally relevant, effective education programs. In other parts of the country, Room to Read has been implementing revised curriculum that Vietnamese educators and students have embraced enthusiastically, showing the organization's understanding of how to create meaningful educational impact in Vietnamese communities.

The gratitude from this community runs deep. For many parents in Bà Râu, seeing their children with access to quality books and a proper library space represents opportunities they never had themselves - opportunities made possible by every Humanitix user who chose our platform for their event needs.

Bangladesh: the Ranir Bazar Government Primary School Library

Halfway across the world in Sylhet, Bangladesh, the children of Ranir Bazar Government Primary School are equally grateful for their library that are helping students read through the partnership of Humanitix and Room to Read.

Room to Read's broader work in Bangladesh includes:

• Training local teachers to implement literacy and life skills programs
• Working with 120 secondary school teachers and education officials across multiple regions for the first phase of Gender Responsive Teacher Training
• Ensuring teachers can independently conduct Life Skills Education sessions for lasting community impact

The gratitude expressed by the Ranir Bazar community reflects the meaningful difference a dedicated library space can make in a region where educational resources are often limited.

What makes these libraries special

These aren't generic book repositories - they're carefully designed spaces that reflect Room to Read's decades of expertise in creating effective learning environments:

• Child-Friendly Design: Every element, from the height of shelves to the colors on the walls, has been chosen to make children feel welcome and excited about reading.
• Culturally Relevant Collections: The books don't just teach reading – they celebrate local culture, tell familiar stories, and help children see themselves reflected in literature.
• Teacher Integration: Educators at both schools have received specialized training to integrate library activities into daily lessons, ensuring the libraries become central to the educational experience rather than add-ons.
• Community Engagement: These libraries serve entire communities, with family literacy programs and community reading events that extend the impact beyond school hours.

The Humanitix difference

What makes these libraries truly special is that they represent the Humanitix model in action. Every event booking on our platform contributes to tangible, named projects like these.

From Lebanon's refugee education centers to South Africa's rural schools, from Indonesia's government partnerships to Afghanistan's mobile libraries - your event bookings are creating literacy opportunities across the globe.

When you choose Humanitix, you're not just attending events - you're ensuring that children on the other side of the world have libraries with your indirect signature on them. You're proving that business can be a force for good, and that education equity and the power of events and connection can work hand in hand.
