Hello Winfred, The response has been the same -- lukewarm -- from the koboko Community (a subset of the wider West Nile Community) so no surprises...
This project has been in place since early 2012 and will take time...so no worries... he or she who is touched can contribute at their own time... Amule is only an email away and is always available at the Koboko resource centre to receive donations... I know that in our community, weddings, or wedding anniversaries attract much more participation than useless books....and education...
