Thanks for the wonderful documentary on sending books to Ethiopia. I have been working with Ethiopia Reads and have been to Addis Ababa to see their first library. We're planning 3 trips to Lalibela with Airline Ambassadors and will be delivering books. Do you work in Lalibela? If so, can we colaborate?

Portia, your enthusiasm is inspirational! Thank you for the heartwarming help to our country. Unfortenately there are still a lot of schools without a single book, so I would like to know how to reach you for more book donation. Please, contact me if there is any possiblity for more books donation. Thank you and May God Bless You and your work.
