Community Library Program |
|
| |
Global Alliance for Africa works with schools, students, teachers and volunteers to raise funds and collect books and educational materials to establish community libraries/resource centers, strengthen schools and educate orphans and vulnerable children in Sub-Saharan Africa. Global Alliance’s work is focused primarily on providing educational resources to orphans and other vulnerable children affected by HIV/AIDS as a foundation for them to rise out of poverty.
