Project Status
The project began with a crowdfunding campaign that collected 42,757 Rs, from 22 individuals from all across the world. The contributions were used to purchase a total of 645 books as of the latest records and we are in a position to create a library having 20 books per centre. The books have been majorly procured from Pratham books, Tulika book house and Amazon. Through the funds and books collected from this campaign, we aim to open more libraries and have a minimum of 30 books in each centre.
