The Nahu Community built a library.
You stocked its shelves with 3,556 books!
Nahu leaders asked Wood Butter to gather and send books for a library at the Gumose Primary School. With your help, we collected 3,556 books. After one trans-pacific sea freight shipment, one United States truck shipment, one Papua New Guinea truck shipment, three chartered planes, and help from many hands along the way, the Gumose Primary School has its library.
Wood Butter has more work to do. But for now, we simply thank you for completing the Library Project with us!
