DIMAPUR: As part of its ongoing efforts to promote education and community development, Akehda Amulung has established a library at Mission School, Kiphire.
Welcoming the Akehda Amulung team, the headmaster of the school thanked the organisation, under the leadership of its founder, Longtili C. Sangtam, for setting up the library, describing the initiative as a dream come true for the school.
Chairman of the School Managing Board, Aketo Sangtam, appreciated Akehda Amulung for its continued efforts towards community welfare. He said investment in education would yield positive outcomes in the future and benefit teachers, students and the community at large.
Secretary of Sub-Centre USBLA, Dr. H. Apise, described the library project as a seed being sown for the future of the community. He expressed pride in the contribution made by Longtili C. Sangtam and his team, and noted that since the school’s establishment in 2018, it had not had a library. He also expressed hope for future partnerships and said the initiative would be remembered in the school’s history.
Speaking on the occasion, founder of Akehda Amulung, Longtili C. Sangtam, said the organisation would continue contributing towards the development of the school and that the library project was only the beginning. He shared a vision of upgrading the facility into a digital library in the future.
He urged the school authorities to make the library operational at the earliest, noting that it could serve students and the wider community while also creating employment and revenue-generating opportunities.
He further stated that Mission School was a community-run institution and that its growth was a collective responsibility. He appealed to the public to contribute according to their capacity towards the development of the school.
CEO of Akehda Amulung, Irothe T. Sangtam, described the library as the first step towards a larger initiative and called for collective efforts to support the institution. He assured that the organisation would continue to contribute towards the growth and welfare of the school.
