How we build a library in Africa
To build a library in Africa, we aim to collect over 1,000 gently used books and raise $700 in funds. We collaborate with individual volunteers, student clubs, and various partner resources to gather the books and funds needed to ship libraries, one at a time.

Collect Books
The volunteer team will either set up a book drive stand in the neighborhood to collect lightly used children's books or reach out to local schools and libraries to collect books that are no longer needed.
Sorting and Packing
Books needs to be sorted to different age group and then packed into media box. Do's forget put the packing material inside the boxes.
