Books and Supplies for Fais

As part of the upcoming National Peace Corps Week the Habele Outer Island Education Fund is compiling donated books and school supplies for the Island of Fais.

Generous donations of books have already arrived from the Pacific Northwest and New England. The cost of shipping will be covered by a donor who sent Habele a check last week in response to our annual report. Thanks for all your help!
