We Are Building a Children’s Library in Madagascar

The village of Anevoka has plenty of kids but no kids’ library. Through our volunteers we have donated enough books to the local primary school to establish a small library. But space has been a major issue at the school and there is already a shortage of classrooms. To create a library, we needed a new building.

This year we are happy to announce that Anevoka Primary School will have a brand new building that houses a children’s library, the very first in the region! In addition, the construction will include two dormitories to accommodate the teachers.

At LVDI International we believe a book can change a child’s life and a library can transform an entire community. We thank our generous donors and dedicated partners, namely GERP, Green Teen Team, DBIOS-University of Turin and Parco Natura Viva for joining us in this effort and for making the library a reality!
