My name is Morgan Hayton I am 16 years old.
I have spent my winter school holidays for two years in Fiji volunteering at local school as part of my schools mission team. We visited a very remote school that is struggling and has only few books in the whole school, the teachers there can only dream of starting a library.
Have you ever wanted to change the world? But think it is impossible because we are just one person, me too.
But then I came up with this idea. We are going to build a library together
One person, one book at a time.
One person can't build a library but if everyone that gets into this group gets a book from their bookshelf (they don't have to be new) and posts it to Fiji we can do it together.

ReplyDeleteAny book at all?
ReplyDeleteI'll look through my shelves this weekend! ;-)
ReplyDeleteFantastic idea - I just put this up on twitter. I hope it will get some more books sent.
ReplyDeleteMorgan,
ReplyDeleteYou are fabulous. I visited Fiji and the island of Nana-Nu-Ira in August 2007, and loved the country. I shall definitely participate as I felt the love of the people on the island, and after a year in on Ambergris Caye in Belize, love island life and understand the need for books. Thaks for making us aware.
Hi, super idea, sorry we all didn't think of this sooner. I spent some time in Figi in the 70s and, although it looks wonderful to the tourists, it's the natives of this beautiful island that need the help. Count me in. Where do I start???
