Why did we start the project?

Back in November 2018, Caro & Yohannes were visiting Ethiopia, the county where Yohannes was born, 35 years ago and which he left for the last time in 1986. During their trip they have visited InfoLink University College in Awassa, which approximate is 250km away from the region where Yohannes was born. The University has around 12.000 students and offers a curriculum in the areas of Education, Law, Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology and Business. After a meeting with the dean of the University College and a visit to the library, it was obvious that there is a great need for available study books in the aforementioned areas. The library was just a few bookshelves. 

 

We asked ourselves: "Can we help?" How great would it be if we could ship a full container with books to InfoLink University College, where these books get a second life and are of great value!

Where are the books going to?

The books will be send to InfoLink University College in Awassa (Ethiopia) and will be placed in the University library, so that students can use them and loan them.
