Village Book Builders

I went with village book builders in 2018 to Mexico! We went to Chican and Kinil Yucatán. It felt like we did things that were going to leave a difference. We stayed in the community and spent every day with them. Growing lasting friendships while spreading the ability to continue education. I will always remember the light in the eyes of those kids as they saw the books. We did very fancy paintings on the wall of the library we spent so long on getting computers and making the place look great. When we asked the kids what they liked most about the library it was the books. They had such a desire to learn and we have them a way to do it! It was very impactful on my life.

We made and impact on the village as well. We were there during New Years and the community enveloped us. They shared their culture with us and allowed us to be apart of their village. I know we made a difference and I would do it again!
