I had pretty much decided I wouldnt ask any of you to contribute anything towards my work over here because thats not what its supposed to be about. Many of us volunteers struggle to determine just what "it" is about. But something too good has come up and I simply cannot resist. There is a joint effort amongst a few of us secondary teachers to bring books to our libraries at out schools. The organization is called books for Africa, Libraries for Life-Uganda.
The website for our Uganda push is...
https://www.booksforafrica.org/donate/to-project.html
I am looking to have two pallets of books delivered which would consist of a mix of the following subjects; general leisure reading, Science, Math, and English Literature. Each pallet consists of 750 books. One pallet costs 400 $ USD, So Its 800$ USD for a total of 1500 books for our school library. We are also ordering one Dell Laptop for 235 $.
I am hoping to raise a total of 1035$ USD for the school.
Ive attached a picture of the library as well...Not very pretty I know but hopefully we can fix that. Anything you are able to contribute is very much appreciated and tax deductible. Make sure when you are filling things out you specify that the money is for Ngora Girls Secondary School, PCV Amy Wilkinson.
Any little thing you are able to contribute is very much appreciated!
Thanks so much in advance!

Now a library project? You are a super volunteer. Will you ever cease? All's I do is drink rooibos tea, wear a fluffy white robe around, go out for sushi, take naps, and attend World Cup games. You win!
ReplyDeleteMy dearest dearest Amanda, You are fighting a much more serious battle over there. Its shame roobibos tea isnt the medication prescribed for parasites. I know if it was they would be gone.
ReplyDeleteI would trade it all in for you to be better. Thats your work now, getting better, so do whatever it is that you need to do to get better. Sip that tea, snuggle in that robe, and eat sushi till your sick! There will always be neglected libraries for you to fix. We will all be waiting for you, right where you left us.
Miss you!
Takes one to know one! Love you too:)
