Got paycheck.yay, finally. Reading through the current Peace Corps volunteer projects, I decided on this project for my 10% donation:

Library Book Project - Zrnovci / Macedonia
Project Number
249-007

The "Todor Arsov" primary school located in the Muncipality of Zrnovci along with schools in Morodvis and Vidovishte teach a total of 309 local children. Until recently, the school library in the village of Zrnovci was located in a small dark room and it had a very limited selection of outdated books. Within the past year, the director has moved the library to a larger, more appopriate room where furniture (shelves, tables, and chairs) has been provided to allow the students space to study. Secure space for library books has also been arranged for the schools in Morodvis and Vidovishte. None of the schools has adequate funding to purchase the required books for the school libraries. Therefore, beginning in July 2004 a local fundraising campaign was implemented in order to raise money for the purchase of the necessary library books. Through small donations (averaging 50 cents) by local citizens, the community has managed to raise $161. Partnership funds are needed to reach the fundraising goal of $631 which will purchase 2 complete sets of books for each of the three schools.
