On January 2, Kiwanis and Key Club joined forces to pack donated books that will be sent to Ghana, West Africa, providing libraries for three schools.

It costs an average of $650 to ship enough books for one library. Donations towards shipping can be made through the Kiwanis Club of Los Alamos at https://losalamos.kiwanisone.org/.  All donations are very much appreciated!

Since 2016, Los Alamos has donated and helped fund the shipment of more than 115 libraries.
