On Tuesday, January 18th we officially opened the doors on the new Maramboso School Library!
The event was a huge gala with students, staff and the press all in attendance. After the requisite dedication speeches in Swahili, everyone had a chance to enter the library for the first time. The library is stocked with the following:
- ~700 story books (more coming from the US!)
- ~100 non-fiction books
- ~800 Tanzanian text books purchased in Arusha
- Art projects from every student at the school (Thanks to Leigh!)
Leigh and I are incredibly thankful for the 100+ sponsors of this incredible project. None of this would have been possible without your generosity. Your donations will truly make a difference in the education of the children at Maramboso.
The photo album has many more pictures from the event.
