Mozambique: Surgeries interrupted at Matola Provincial Hospital after fire
Courtesy of Books for Africa / Books for Africa is a Minnesota-based program that has sent more than 34 million books to 49 different countries in Africa since 1988
Books For Africa will be shipping 22,000 (about 20 tons) of English books to Mozambique this year. Patrick Plonski, BFA’s executive director, said they plan to ship an additional 300,000 custom-printed Portuguese books to Mozambique early next year.
According to Plonski, this is part of a five-year project and the first time they are sending a huge number of books in a foreign language. There is hope to expand the project into other African countries as well.
