Our Wish List

"Wishes, like castles in the air, are inexpensive and not taxable." Thomas Chandler Haliburton.

Here are some things we are wishing for:


Funding for:

  • Materials -- books, posters, leaflets, computer software -- for our new "Libraries: Working With the Land" program, being launched in all centres.
  • Creation of three new libraries planned for rural areas over the next two years.
  • Support fund for Super Angels girls groups, in particular money to transport inspirational speakers to Sipili (5,000 KSh each time, about $65).
  • Printing and promotion costs! We need to print KLT informational brochures, and we would like to print lists of suggested reading created by kids to share between libraries.

Donations of:

  • BOOKS! With three new centres coming on line, we need stock, especially children's books in excellent condition. No curriculum books, please.
  • Full sets (20 copies) of novels for the book clubs
  • Cassette players so kids can enjoy audio books
  • Wheelchairs for disabled library users
  • Services of a mechanic to keep our vehicle running
  • Donations of diesel for the vehicle
  • Art supplies for art clubs
  • Sanitary towels for our girl members, so all can attend school every day of the month!
  • Musical instruments
  • Costumes for drama groups
  • DVD players and TVs to show educational programmes, and screen recordings of
    performances by drama, dance, drumming and rappers' groups.
  • Computers and printers.
  • High-quality surge protectors (UPS units). This is VERY important, power surges destroy computers and other electronic devices.

 

We love bikes!
