Thank you for reaching out to us about your cause. At the Lemur Conservation Foundation, we try to process as many bilingual book requests as possible, but we cannot guarantee that every request will be granted. We will consider book donation requests for organizations and educators that focus on literacy, the environment, or conservation education. Once approved, a member of our team will respond via the email you provide on the form below. LCF reserves the right to refuse a donation request.

DESCRIPTION:
The six colorful children’s books in the Ako Series by Dr. Alison Jolly will inspire children and adults alike to care deeply about lemurs, Madagascar, and its people. These bilingual books (English and Malagasy) are a magical way for children all over the world develop a deeper respect, compassion, and appreciation for nature and the world around them.

A variety of educational habitat posters that accompany the Ako Series are also available to download for free on our website. Find these materials and more here: www.lemurreserve.org/ako-project.

REQUEST TIMELINE:
Please note that a 60-day advance notice is required for all donation requests.

LOCATION:
At this time, the Lemur Conservation Foundation prints all bilingual book editions in Madagascar. The applicant must be able to facilitate book pick-up in Tana. Our staff will reach out via email with more details about pick-up locations and available pick-up dates.
