Kenya 40 Library Project
At the Maryam Library Foundation, we believe that education is the key to unlocking the potential of underserved communities around the world. That's why we work tirelessly to provide access to books, the building blocks of knowledge and imagination. After 9 months of hardwork (see blog), we celebrate an incredible milestone that brings us closer to making a lasting impact on the lives of thousands of children in Kenya.
Arrival of the Container and Books in Kenya
We are overflowing with joy! Our ambitious project to build 40 libraries in Kenya has reached a momentous milestone – all 40 libraries are now established and brimming with eager readers!
And the best part? We're receiving a flood of heartwarming videos from the schools, capturing the pure excitement and gratitude of the students and teachers whose lives have been touched by this initiative.
Witnessing the Impact
These videos aren't just recordings; they're windows into the transformative power of books and the incredible impact of your support. We see:
Children beaming with pride as they explore their new libraries, their eyes sparkling with curiosity and a thirst for knowledge.
Teachers expressing heartfelt thanks for the invaluable resources, which are already making a difference in their classrooms.
Communities coming together to celebrate the opening of these new learning hubs, recognizing the libraries as beacons of hope and opportunity.

A Symphony of Gratitude
The videos are a symphony of laughter, singing, and heartfelt messages of thanks. Students are eager to share their favorite books, teachers are excited to implement new learning programs, and communities are embracing the libraries as vibrant centers for growth and connection.
Sharing the Joy
We're so excited to share this joy with you! Stay tuned to our website and social media channels, where we'll be posting these inspiring videos and stories from Kenya.
Your Support Made This Possible
None of this would have been possible without your incredible generosity and support. Thank you for believing in our mission and for helping us bring the gift of reading to these deserving communities.
What's Next?
Inspired by the success in Kenya, we're now setting our sights on Tanzania! Learn more about our new project to build 40 libraries in Tanzania and how you can help us spread the joy of reading even further.
