Schools-4-Schools Joins Forces with TCD Trust

Monday, November 27th, 2006

The TCD Trust has teamed up with a UK charity – SCHOOLS-4-SCHOOLS. We are acting as their on-the-ground agents, identifying projects, overseeing operations and allocating funding.

They have been given a mandate by Maskew Miller Longman to build as many community libraries as possible, which they will fully stock with books. The TCD Trustees met on 07 December with government representatives to discuss acquisition of land for the building of these libraries.

Watch this space for further developments on this exciting library project…

We are proud to have these companies as Friends of the Trust
