Hello Everyone / Vanakkam,

From Tamilezhuthapadi Publications, we are reaching out to seek your support for an exciting and important cause—our attempt to set a Guinness World Record for the longest consecutive reading event by 120 young Tamil authors!

What is this event about?

We are organizing a one-of-a-kind event that will bring together talented young authors from our community, each reading from their own books published by TamilEzhuthapadi publications in a non-stop relay for Tamil literacy and the preservation of our cultural heritage. This event is not just about breaking a record but about celebrating the beauty of Tamil literature and fostering the next generation of writers.

The event will take place on December 8th, 2024, in Suwanee, Georgia.

This journey has been a long one—4 years of hard work and perseverance to meet all the requirements Guinness World Records has requested. But our vision for this event is deeply tied to the work we’ve been doing since the start of Tamilezhuthapadi Publications in 2020-2021.

Our journey so far:

• We have published 700 books written by Tamil students aged 15 and younger.

• More than 11 schools have participated, encouraging students to write and explore the beauty of Tamil literature.

• All books are available online for free at https://storybuzz.org, making them accessible to everyone. We encourage you to read the books and leave feedback for all the young authors.

• https://storybuzz.org is more than a reading platform; it’s a place for aspiring authors to start their journey. We encourage everyone to use the platform for both reading and writing.

Physical copies of all books are offered for a very small printing fee of less than $5 each, so every child’s work can be in print.

Why we need your support:

Organizing an event of this scale comes with several expenses, including:

• Guinness World Record Submission Fees: To officially register and submit our record attempt.

• Event Venue & Rentals: Ensuring we have a space large enough for our participants and audience.

• T-shirts & Participant Certificates: To recognize each young author’s participation in this historic event.

• Event Logistics: Including sound systems, seating arrangements, and other necessities.

• Marketing & Outreach: To spread the word and make sure our cause reaches as many people as possible.

How your contribution helps:

Your donations, big or small, will go directly towards covering these costs and ensuring that we can make this event a success. More than just an attempt to break a record, this event will be a symbol of Tamil pride and a celebration of our rich literary heritage.

By supporting us, you are not just helping us set a Guinness World Record, but also encouraging young Tamil authors and promoting literacy in our community.

We sincerely hope you’ll join us on this incredible journey by donating and sharing our cause with your network. Together, we can make history and inspire a new generation of Tamil authors.

Thank you for your generosity and support!

Vaazhga Tamizh!
