Working with our colleagues at The Book Fairies and United Mission for Relief & Development (UMR) we shipped a 40 foot container to Somaliland, where it was distributed by Abaarso School of Science and Technology. Over 210 boxes of clothes, uniforms, and shoes have been distributed and 1,000 boxes of books are being added to libraries at area schools.
