Dear all,
On behalf of the Village School Project we would like to thank you for your generous donation,; books, materials, cash….
Your commitment helping to build the library in the Akumalam community has been sincerely appreciated. Many Thanks from the pupils and village community.
Each year our association continues to advance its mission of promoting education. Through our diverse projects since 2005 we have seen many lives changed for the better. In particular the Library School Project is gaining great success in the last few months after handing over in March 2011.
Facts:
The construction of the building was financed 100% by Dorfschulprojekt e.V. The building was handed over to the community in March 2011. Final construction works were finished in July 2011. Diversity of books, classroom text books and writing equipments were supplied in April 2011. Additional books will be shipped soon to the library. We have been able to recruit a library assistant and the library has been operational since July 2011. The library assistant also works as a part-time teacher at Akumalam village school.
This project is only possible because of thoughtful contributions from people like you. Your generous donation will be used purposely for the purchase of books and other required materials - thank you.
We plan to raise the library to a recognisable standard, where the children, pupil and women of Akumalam community would use these books for a common use – to improve their level of education.
As you know, the cost of running all these activities does not go away. We hope for your continuous support.
As a reminder, our association do not have registered members, all donations are from friends, colleagues and friends of friends. Thus, with this limited budget we have, we do not allocate any donation for administrative purposes.
Thank you all,
Kai, Ed, and Anye
