Akumalam Community Library
Oct 9th, 2011 by Anye Chifen
Village School Project / DORFSCHULPROJEKT e. V. constructs a community library for Akumalam.
April 2011: Books provide an exciting view to a wider world. Unfortunately, in Akumalam, Cameroon, text books are rare and if available, expensive. The Akumalam Community Library will assist in overcoming these challenges.
We refurbish the Akumalam community – donated a 3 room building, transforming them into a space to read and study. The library has been stocked with 200 books by local and foreign authors in English, French, German languages to a little extent possible. We expect more donation of books for this Library. Please feel free to send up interesting books for this library.
In addition, VSP employs a librarian and a teacher for the school and provides for Illiterate parents evening classes. Thereby empowering locals with knowledge.
Words cannot express the gratitude from the community – Thank you all for donating.
“The creation of new learning opportunities for the school and community has started, we thank you all” – Head techer Akumalam school.
