Subject: Library and Hagati Secondary School Update
The picture is of the school kitchen
Hello,
I just got back from an extremely quick trip out to the Hagati Valley where I spent a day visiting Hagati Secondary (where I taught during Peace Corps) and the library.
The library seems to be continuing fairly well. They had just received three more boxes of books and magazines like National Geographic the day before I arrived. It seems like there are usually around 15 visits a day, though sometimes double that on Sundays.
Mr. Mbunda, the headmaster at Hagati, greets you and thanks you a lot for the donated money. Some of the funds are being used help pay the school and examination fees of three students who are orphans (one technically still has a father, but he is crazy) and have difficult economic conditions. The money also was used to set up electricity in one room which is going to be used as a computer lab / photocopy room. And the remainder of the money will be used on shelves and tables for the library (which will be in the same room as the computer lab).
Michael
