Public Library has been able to financially show its support for the cause with its first capsule collection receiving extensive retail support at a plethora of boutiques, specialty and better department stores nationwide

“I have taken the last three years to create a solid foundation for over 20,000 men, women and children in Samburu, Kenya and Public Library is helping us take this cause to new heights. Through Public Library’s collection we are giving consumers an opportunity to get involved and support the cause and I couldn’t be more pleased with their ability to capture the essence of The Samburu Project through their Public Library collection.”
