We Did It – The Library Is Launched – Your Story Matters!
The library at Good Samaritan Children’s Home was successfully launched on 20 March 2021 (World Storytelling Day), with the theme Your Story Matters. It was a fun day, and the kids loved it.

There were several speakers that encouraged and advised participants, as well as entertainment. We also celebrated with plenty of cake! A special thanks to all who supported the library expansion.
