OUR WORK IN ANTIGUA
Early in 2023 WEF sent a shipment of books and educational material to Nelvie N Gore Primary School in Antigua. The material had been donated to us from several sources, including Hurlingham Books and Heath Books Educational Specialists. The books were shipped to Antigua free of charge by Challenger Shipping.
