It has been another year of coping with the effects of the pandemic that has seriously affected our lives and the economy. Education is one of the industries that have suffered most and are still struggling to recover. 

Some schools, such as John /Awaseb Primary School in Mondesa, Swakopmund, have not received any textbooks since they opened in 2020. Earlier this month, NPH sent a donation of most needed educational materials to the school via Swakop Bookshop. The books were handed over by Mr Joachim von Wietersheim.

NPH also responded to the need for more educational materials by the Auala ELCIN Library and Archives in Oniipa. The library, named after the late Bishop Dr Leonard Nangolo Auala, who was the first Namibian bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Namibia (ELCIN), serves the learners, students and teachers from the Oniipa and Onandjokwe communities that surround it. The donation was humbly received by Bishop Auala's son, Councillor Joseph Auala.
