Libraries of Love

Trudy Marshall was a teacher in Pflugerville for eighteen years and a librarian in a Round Rock school for ten years. After traveling to thirty-nine countries, someone suggested she go to Uganda. There she found schools with no books. The first school library was provided in 2005. At present in Uganda, Libraries of Love has provided forty-six school libraries and three in prisons. Seven school libraries have also been provided in Kenya. 

In their sponsorship program, there are now twenty-five college graduates and fifty-four sponsored students with fourteen of those in college. 

Libraries of Love also meets endless humanitarian needs. 

Trudy lives in small villages with the people she serves in both Uganda and Kenya six to seven months a year. She is a Rotarian in Rotary Club of Pflugerville.
