The RSO Movement: Collecting Over 10,000 Books and Counting!

The RSO Movement for Education is gaining unstoppable momentum, and we are thrilled to share some exciting updates! Our mission to donate 1 million books to students in Samoa has received incredible support from across the United States, with collections pouring in from Seattle, Missouri, Idaho, and Nevada. Thanks to the generous hearts of these communities, we’ve already gathered over 10,000 books—and we’re just getting started!

From public libraries and schools to local organizations and individual donors, people are coming together to make a real impact. The outpouring of support we’ve received is nothing short of inspiring. These books represent more than just pages and words—they are a gateway to learning, creativity, and opportunity for the children in Samoa.

Seattle has been a beacon of support, rallying its community around our cause, with hundreds of families donating books they’ve outgrown, hoping to pass them on to children in need. Missouri has shown incredible generosity, with schools and community groups organizing drives that collected thousands of books in just a few short weeks. Idaho and Nevada have also come through with enthusiastic contributions, proving that the spirit of giving knows no boundaries.

Each book we collect brings us closer to our ultimate goal, and we are immensely grateful for everyone who has participated in the movement. The impact of these donations will resonate far beyond the borders of these states and into the classrooms of Samoa, where they will inspire young minds and nurture future leaders.

We want to give a huge faafetai to all the communities, volunteers, and partners who have stepped up to help. This is a collective effort, and each of you is part of something truly special. As we continue to grow, we’re confident that with your continued support, we’ll reach our goal of 1 million books!

The journey is just beginning, and we can’t wait to see where this movement takes us next. Stay connected with us as we share more stories and updates from across the globe. Together, we’re making a world of difference—one book at a time.

Thank you again to Seattle, Missouri, Idaho, Nevada, and all the generous souls helping us bring education to the children of Samoa!
