CERFO For Change
We,the Founders Of CERFO believe that every child and adult should have the opportunity to pick up a book and read. We are dedicated to increasing access to reading material and other information in rural villages of Tanzanian villages. CERFO Free Library and it's programs serves the whole community of Akheri,Nkoanrua and Nkoarisambu ward. One core public is the local community of readers- primary and secondary students, adult learners, and other persons committed to reading. Most children, particularly in rural areas , have little access to books. While they may go to school, they will probably have little opportunity to read age-appropriate material. There are very few books available in rural schools. CERFO emphasizes books that are highly demanded by students especially those that base on their curriculum,and those that can suit the local readers: African novels and storybooks, children's books with village themes, and local language materials for the newly literate village reader.
Children, young adults, farmers, weavers, traders, and others in very poor villages should have similar access to information- through books and other media- as people in developed countries. CERFO operates under the belief that true development can only happen when people are empowered by access to information and the habits of reading and critical thinking. CERFO strives to include in our library collection as much relevant, useful information as is available.
