Peterson Container Distributed
PEN Trust friend, Mary Jo Peterson, has a special place in her heart for the people of East Africa. In 2001, she visited Tanzania in order to get a better idea of the background and culture of her families’ foster child’s home country of Uganda. This year PEN Trust was fortunate to be the recipient of a forty foot container of books from Books For Africa donated by her family.
Math books being sorted by title.
Science books – this consignment had large numbers of single title books. We chose to have a smaller number of schools as recipients for this container so that schools may receive larger classroom sets.
Example of one title - Life Science. Each secondary school received over 60 copies.
The same occurred in math – multiple copies for each school.
