In the picturesque community of Taucca, Chinchero, a young and passionate volunteer named Diana found herself filled with anticipation and hope. Her heart has always been devoted to serving others, especially children, and she knew that the new library would bring a world of possibilities and inspiration to the community. When she first heard about the construction of the library, she couldn’t wait to be part of this transformative journey.
In preparation for the grand opening on November 3rd, Diana carefully selected some of her favorite books and games, eager to share the joy and knowledge they had given her. She arrived early on the day of the inauguration, her smile as bright as the morning sun, and got right to work, helping with decorations and making sure everything was perfect for the children. Throughout the day, Diana’s warmth and energy created an inviting atmosphere, and she made sure every child felt welcome, guiding them through the activities with care and enthusiasm.
One of the children who had been counting down the days to the library’s opening was Vanessa, a curious and cheerful girl from Taucca. For Vanessa, the library held a magical allure, a place full of mysteries and adventures just waiting to be discovered. On the morning of the event, she woke up early, her hair in neat braids and her heart full of excitement. Arriving at the library with her mother, Vanessa was thrilled to see the crowd of children and adults, all gathered to celebrate this special moment.
The excitement in the air grew as the ribbon was cut, and Vanessa rushed inside to explore the new space. Her eyes sparkled with wonder as she took in the shelves filled with books and the colorful board games waiting to be played. During the program, Lizeth, one of the leaders, shared the story of the “wordless book,” using colored beads to teach the children about the creation and love of Jesus. Vanessa listened intently, fascinated by the meaning behind each color. Inspired by the story, she carefully made her own bracelet, threading each bead with a mix of concentration and joy, knowing she would cherish this memory forever.
Later, as refreshments were served, Vanessa sat with the other children, animatedly sharing her experience and showing off her new bracelet. She spoke with the innocent excitement of someone who had just witnessed something extraordinary, something that would forever be a part of her heart. The day ended with photos, laughter, and a sense of pride and happiness. Vanessa was beaming, proud to be part of something that she knew would bring lasting change and joy to her community.
The opening of the Taucca Library marks the beginning of a new chapter for the children of Chinchero. It is a place where they can explore, learn, and grow, and it would not have been possible without the incredible support of Allies and generous donors.
