African Library Project – 2022: Malawi, Alinane Junior Academy and Dunduzu Primary School
Being a part of the African Library Project taught us to be more considerate, organized, and thoughtful. Knowing that the books we have collected will benefit children's education and make them happy teaches us the responsibilities and value of the global community. We are delighted to be part of the initiative and want to continue participating in African Library Project book drives to make the world a better place.
