Thank you to the handful of donors who have given $900 in the last week. That puts us closer to our goal. We need another $1,600 to be able to pay the metalworkers who build the roof and affix the windows and doors, and for the skilled laborers who do all the painting and finishing.

Our volunteer in Mali, Abou, tells us that he has never seen a village that is so motivated to build a school. The village chief visits the site almost every day to check on the progress. We would love to finish this project before the first day of school, on October 1.

Please consider making a donation, large or small. Thank you!
