We’re thankful to Mrs. Melanie Wilson, a former PhD Candidate of Education at McGill University and volunteer with Education Volunteer Network extended a personal call for action to her friends and family to help send some books to us. Along with the help of team of students at Summit School in Montreal, Canada, two boxes were packed and sent to Uganda.
However, even with this shipment, our library remains a dream… but one that is coming close to a reality. The donation drive equipped Melanie with hundreds more books, but with limited funds, only a portion was sent. A second shipment is needed to send heavier texts, such as a Science Encyclopedia set donated by McGill’s Book drive. Please contact Melanie (melanie.h.wilson@gmail.com) if you would like to help send these much needed books.
In addition to these books, RCS needs required academic texts by the Ministry of Education for their students. Below is a sample of some of the books that we need. Note: They are listed here with the title, author and price in Ugandan shillings. Click here for currency conversion.
Please send us a donation and be sure to indicate that you want to help us purchase books for our library.
