Dear donor,

FAVL continues to support community libraries in Burkina Faso with book distributions, where we favor girl-centered books. We also have focused also in Burkina Faso on our project to print 10,000 copies of 50 titles in our "local authors" series. These are short illustrated books for young readers, photocopied. We anticipate finishing these in September, and distributing 250 copies to each of the libraries in Bereba and Dimikuy, as well as to other libraries in Tuy province. Almost all of these books are authored by young women of Houndé town, and their themes are relevant to young women.

We have also been distributing books to libraries in the Tuy region.

We would like to thank you for your continued support.
