Photos have been removed from this issue because of a law in Kenya requiring strict documentation for photos and videos featuring school children.
I hope you have had a great summer. It has been a busy and exciting time for Libraries For Kids, Int'l as we visited schools in Kenya. Talking with the children is such a pleasure. They are really smart and have great hopes and ambitions when they grow up. They just need more resources to achieve their dreams.
With few books and little or no electricity, the rural schools in Kenya are at a real disadvantage relative to the urban schools. They get very little funding from the goverment. The teachers I've met are dedicated professionals and are doing the best they can with the resources they have. They don't need a hand out. They just need a hand up.
We are excited to roll out our new website. Our dedicated volunteer and Board member, Caitlyn Kasper has done a great job on the new site. Please take a look and give us some feedback.
