Is my thirst increased!

Dear Donors,

"I have been reading only my textbooks until I was 16. After that, I started reading newspapers. Last year I was compelled (with a happy smile on face) by my coaching class teacher to join the mobile library operated by New Life. Thanks to her, I was introduced to storybooks and other general knowledge books. In the beginning, I was lethargic to borrow books from the library. But after I read a few books I started waiting for the mobile library to come to our area. I will be the first one to take books and will also finish reading the books within two days. Nowadays I am eagerly waiting for the library and would be happy if they lend me more books." says Raju who is studying college now. Raju wants to become a lawyer.

There are many children like Raju who are now the members of the mobile library. They have never read another book than their text until they joined our mobile library. Now our mobile library has introduced the good habit of reading during their leisure time. 

The future aim of the library is to provide more reference books for the youth besides fiction books. This is possible only with support from you dear donors. While thanking you for your support, we also request you to continue your support. We need donations to operate the library and to add more books to the resource. Kindly spread words about the project to your friends and relatives who would love to support this cause. 

Thanking you
