Journey of Gratitude: Evelyne Mwandia 📚

Meet Evelyne Mwandia, Executive Director of Start a Library Trust and 2023 Gratitude Network Fellow.

In Kenya, 50% of children graduate from primary school without being able to read with comprehension. Evelyne started Start a Library Trust in 2022 to change that, with a model built on three things:

📖 Access: Libraries at school and at home, so children can read for pleasure, not just for exams.
🍎 Capacity: Equipping educators, parents, and school leaders, and building a reading culture within schools.
✍️ Application: Children write their own stories, which are published, and apply what they’ve learned from reading to their education.

Today, with a team of just 5 staff, Start a Library Trust serves 1.5 million children across 326 libraries. 💛
