Last year, APLA's Grow a Library very successfully adopted a library in Africa through CODE. Our fundraising efforts have helped the MOJO library and thanks to Donna Bourne-Tyson and her Committee for taking this on and raising the needed $2500!
As Past President, I chair the Grow the Library Committee and the group this year has chosen another worthy library to adopt through CODE, the Solomon-Mahlangu library in Tanzania.

Check out this library at the above link. You can go in and support this library on your own, help out with the Grow A Library Committee or conduct your own event to raise money. It is a great cause!
If you are interested in any of the above, please let me know scleyle@mun.ca.
