BML supports development of library in R. Fainu 

Under its Community Fund, BML has supported the development of a library in R. Fainu. The library is established at the island’s Community Centre and the project was initiated by FACE ( Fainu Association for Community Endeavours), a local NGO in the island. 

As per BML, the aim of this project is to grow the habit of reading among youth and raise an educated generation. In addition to easy access to a variety of books, the library is also equipped with a computer lab housing 3 computer systems which students can access for school or research work. As part of the project, the space in front of the Community Centre was upgraded with benches and bookshelves for the convenience of visitors. The project also supported the establishment of mobile bookshelves in three different locations in the island’s beach area. 

Community Fund is a program to empower individuals and NGOs to contribute to their communities through sustainable projects.
