After months of planning, working hard to establish the space, to painting, to putting the books up, finally I can say the Library of Hambou is now open for business. And of course non of this would've been possible without the help of my amazing community members, friends, and students.
With all that being said, please enjoy pictures of our adventure in creating the Library of Hambou.

I want to thank everyone who supported the library in every way, and all those in my community who helped make this become a reality.
Lest's see what possibilities will come from the Library of Hambou.
