From Ayder Memorial Library Project Committee April 2009



 Upcoming
event:
Fund
raising event will be on May 3rd. Details to be posted soon.
In
June 1998, Ethiopia experienced a genocide in which schoolchildren,
teachers, parents, and other civilians were bombed and massacred by
the Eritrean government warplanes in the premises of the Ayder
Elementary School, Mekelle, Ethiopia. Through the establishment of the
Ayder Memorial Library Project, in memory of the victims, it is our
hope that the tools used for destruction will be replaced with tools
of knowledge. Successful completion of this monumental effort will
mark a watershed in Ayder’s history, finally providing unfettered
access to a treasure trove of knowledge. |
