Our goals

A chain of children’s libraries across Ghana

Working closely with local authorities and communities in rural Ghana, we aim to establish children's libraries throughout the villages of Ghana.

Working together

Built in partnership with the community

We work in collaboration with local authorities and the entire community: schools, parents and other nonprofit organizations with similar goals, such as promoting reading and education.

Our goal is to build children’s libraries in Ghana where kids can freely visit to read, learn to read, and take part in the programs and activities each library offers, promoting early learning opportunities for children.
