      My son & I went to Bhalekane, Swaziland in august 2009. My son wanted to help this school that we worked at by giving them a library. There are few schools that have books to read, let alone a library. We have been collecting books, now we are trying to raise the funds to ship them and then go over this Spring to set up libraries in ten rural schools. We feel this will also help educate about the ravaging disease of AIDS. We are trying to raise enough funds to buy elementary books called J.A.W.S that deal with elementary students and the struggles they have.

      I wish we had this "Kickstarter" funding in Canada! keep up keep this in the forefront of our minds by reminding us about HIV/AIDS and how it's affecting women and their communities.
