ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½

Our friends at the Ethiopian Knowledge and Technology Transfer Society (EKTTS) have reported successful outcomes two years into their ongoing partnership with BFA to improve library services and training across Ethiopia.

ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½ supporters often sponsor the shipment of books to honor someone in their lives. What better holiday to honor women leaders than Mother’s Day? In honor of women’s leadership, BFA created the Girls Empowerment Collection and has collected stories of mothers who inspire us.

A shipment recently arrived in Tanzania, where BFA partners are finding creative ways to distribute books while maintaining social distancing measures.

BFA Executive Director Patrick Plonski was invited as a guest on the latest episode of Vector Global's podcast "Supply Chain Now: Logistics With Purpose."

A shipment recently arrived in Tanzania with an Elsey Kirabo Memorial library! Schools are not in session, but a few teachers came in to receive the books and unpack them for when the students eventually return.

ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½ was recently profiled in two of Atlanta's major media outlets, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and WSB-TV 2 Atlanta, for its work supporting medical personnel in ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½ with needed medical resource books during the coronavirus pandemic, as well as assisting students with books during school closures.
