D6 International Service: Book Bus Matilda

D6 International Service: Book Bus Matilda

Book Bus Matilda left Southampton on June 8th and was scheduled to arrive in Namibia on 7th July. Once cleared, Book Bus driver Raj was ready to take Matilda take to Zambia very soon after.

Matilda left with a load of books on board (please see photos attached).

Once again thank you all for your support for this project and for your commitment and enthusiasm for International Service. Monies are still coming into Association which will be used to fund Matilda’s running costs when she takes books and mentors to school around Kitwe in Zambia. (Pam Boyes)
