The library is expected to ease the burden the school faces such as students' poor performance in class and high rates of school dropout which often leads to increases in early marriages.. Additionally, it will promote literacy and cultivate a strong reading culture within the community. This project will transform Nampeya village and its coming generations as it holds the promise of enhancing education opportunities for all in the village.
