A WEEK IN JEREMIE CREATING A COMPUTER LAB/LIBRARY



These are some of the "Timoun Mamba" as the children looking in the windows of the library called them. That is the name that some of the children of the school call the children in our program. It means "Peanut Butter Kids."  They are so named because our children receive a vitamin-protein supplement each school day that is peanut butter based.

You are looking at the brightest spot in the entire school. It is the only room with walls painted in a color other than white or gray. It is the only room with maps on the walls, a solar system hanging from the ceiling, and sports posters encouraging the children to do their best.

Before last week, the library books were unused and covered with dust. The old computers were from the 90's and the children had to sit on the floor to use them and read books.  The update was done due to funding from grants and generous sponsors of our program.

                 A BIG THANK-YOU GOES TO ALL OF YOU WHO HELPED!
