Local Principals Expand School Libraries

Donations of books, soccer balls and T-shirts were recently received by the principals from local schools in the Kyamaganda community. Donations were sent by US-Africa Children’s Fellowship and Wonderland BookSavers.

These boxes of books and school supplies have traveled from the US to Zimbabwe and then, with great difficulty, to the Kyamaganda Community Development Organization, where they are being sorted so that they can be shared between the KCDO library and local schools.

KCDO students are currently on school holiday. When they return, they will be greeted by many new books, both textbooks and children’s fiction. The soccer balls will be the best surprise!

BOOKS

Through book donations we received from Wonderland BookSavers we were able to supply 18 schools and 100’s of children throughout our region with numerous books for the very first time.

Books are our most necessary tool for generating literacy among our young students.

These children are learning to read and write in English and are hoping to have sufficient success in Primary School to enable them to enter Secondary School.

Do you see unread books sitting around your home?

Every book that your children have outgrown can be donated so that these children can become literate.

One of the most exciting moments is to look at these pictures and recognize a book that you have personally placed in a box and donated to this cause.

Join the fun! Donate your gently used children’s books today. It is that easy to be the miracle in someone else’s life. Contact us for more information.

LIBRARY

With both funds and books from Wonderland BookSavers, we have been able to build a community library.

We now have many children and adults coming to our KCDO library, this really makes us a community center, enabling us to directly benefit all members of the KCDO family.

We are still adding to our book collection, and so our library resources continue to grow. We have recently received another 70 boxes of books from Wonderland BookSavers and this brings even more people to our library.

The children love to unpack our new books. If you would like to help us build our library, consider donating children’s books. We love to read! Contact us if you would like to contribute.
