The program is so easy. We certainly get back far more than what it costs to pay for the dictionaries. The benefits the dictionaries offer also far outweigh the cost. We always receive a positive response from the school teachers whose classes receive the dictionaries. Other leaders in the community are impressed with this promotion of literacy.
