Thanks to some end of the year donations SNH has the start of a loan library. Books and adaptive equipment has been purchased for staff and student use. Textbooks and supplemental resources will assist the children with their studies.
A collection of magnifying glasses of different strengths will enable those with low vision to try them out to find what works best for them.
In addition, a collection of books from
Hesperian will help staff understand the needs of those with various exceptionalities and how to best help the village child.
Right now the library is very small but as needs are identified and funds raised more will be added. If you would like to make a donation towards the SNH library, please email sherinahnewhope(at)gmail.com

Congratulations on setting up a library for the children. It will be wonderful to see the children and families learn and grow as a result of this new resource. Keep up the amazing work!
ReplyDeleteHow awesome that you were able to set up a lending library. Being in the US, we sure take for granted the availability of books and information. Blessings to SNH and these wonderful families.
