El Rodeo Gets its own Bibliotequita


Inspired by the Little Free Library movement, our WES Global Connections committee organized a free book depository in our sister community of El Rodeo, El Salvador.  When the WES delegation visited El Rodeo in July, it brought books to donate, purchased building materials, and hired a local carpenter to construct the little library.  Community leader Elvis Zavala, who visited WES last February, had seen the Little Free Libraries in Takoma Park and was excited to have one in El Rodeo.  Thanks to Pam Williams for first suggesting the idea and making it happen.
