We envision a future of Community Libraries in Vihiga

-: We are envisioning a future of community libraries in Vihiga. The room at Gamalenga is almost complete. 

We also have a building for us at Zimbalo. 

And many others as they come. 

At least each Saniaga group to patronise a community library.

We have volunteer buildings at Gamalenga, Zimbalo and Mbale waiting to be renovated and works commence. 

-: Mr. Ukiru at Mbale, Olembo building and Neccy Kikaya have both offered spaces for SANIAGA SACCO. 

- All we need is within us.

-: SNV Netherlands funded such an initiative some years back.
It is actually my first successful project proposal.

The Hamisi Community Resource Centre.

They gave us a computer and printer, salary for 6 months, newspapers, and money for renovation ...
This is a great concept Saniagas ...Money for books too

-: With several community libraries, me thinks, we may not only attract such partners but also be used as a benchmark to other communities that need such good organization. 

- Let us all be supportive.

-: i have library room that  I can volunteer. Is it possible to have it a christen it The Keleda Kibe Saniaga Memorial  library at Mukenye Market Busali. Deliberate and let me know. I would also be the pioneer donater of books especially for our primary and secondary communities.
