Donate NowUSA Jarra Association is embarking on a project to mobilize resources and donate used books to the Kanni-Kunda Primary School, Soma Senior Secondary School, and Jappinah Primary School, as well as open a resource center and community library within Kanni-Kunda Village. The ultimate aim and objective is to help changing the lives of people in the village.
We hope that this initiative will bring a core change in our community in the area of intellectual development of the public. We are hopeful that this library will provide easy access to books and learning resources, hence not only nurturing a culture of reading in school going kids from early childhood but subsequently enhancing their performance in their academic endeavors.
