Hands Across The Sea

Over the past three years, Hands Across the Sea’s Caribbean Literacy and School Support (CLASS) program has shipped over 50,900 books and 88 boxes of art supplies and teaching resources to 12,750 students at 52 schools, and eight libraries and community reading programs in seven English-speaking Eastern Caribbean countries. Hands acquires books from private donors, from school community service groups, and by buying them new through various sources and “nearly new” at Friends of the Library sales throughout New England. The books are sorted and packed by volunteers and shipped via our generous Hands corporate supporters, AIT Worldwide and Tropical Shipping, to school principals in the Caribbean. Working directly with local teachers, school principals, U.S. Peace Corps Volunteers, local NGOs and community leaders, Hands Across the Sea is helping to promote literacy, classrooms that are more conducive to learning, and the opportunity to explore art in under-resourced Caribbean villages — which often lie just over the fence from four-star hotels and resorts.

To make sure that the books and teaching supplies have reached their Caribbean destinations and are being properly utilized, Hands Across the Sea co-founders T.L. and Harriet Linskey visit recipient schools and communities from December through May.

The visits give Hands the opportunity to work on school improvement projects and to enlist cruising sailor volunteers to support local communities. In addition to books and resources, Hands has supplied classrooms with special “reading corners,” bookshelves for classroom libraries, and most recently built a literacy center and refurbished the school library in an underserved secondary school on the island of Dominica. We are rewarded by group hugs and smiling children and teachers who are thrilled to have high-quality, near-new books!
