Supporting the MicSem library on Yap.

From reopening to continuing care
A collection
back within reach.
In 2024, Habele donors helped fund the final stages of reopening the library at Yap Catholic High School. The public opening followed on May 1, 2025.
Our commitment today is to help sustain the library and the work of caring for its collection. Its value lies in what people can learn from it, now and in the years ahead.
