Dala means home in the native Dholuo language from Kenya, East Africa, and usually refers to one's home in the rural village.


Dala Library is a free and fun space where children in rural Kenya can enjoy reading storybooks; books that would otherwise not be easily accessible to them.


Dala Library is an engaging space for children to indulge in various storybooks from Africa and the rest of the world.


Dala Library inspires each child to dream big, love learning, and explore the rest of their world one book at a time.

The goal is to set up small Dala libraries open to all children in rural villages across Kenya.

To start us off on this mission are the two dalas that keep us grounded, our village home - thanks to our parents and their parents.
