Building a new generation of leaders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Books are not the only interesting features of Logos Hope. The floating library also offers other mind-blowing experiences including school facilities, health services, theater, a lounge, and catering services. The director of Logos Hope, Randy Grebe explained what the mission means to the crew members of Logos Hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have 300 crew members and some of them are visiting Libya for the first time. Speaking on behalf of GBA Ships, I can tell you that they are excited.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The philanthropists that initiated the idea of a floating library has one vision in mind which is to grow the next generation of leaders\u2014since readers are leaders. In the broader sense, they want to make the world smarter. Its mission is \u201csharing knowledge, help, and hope\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur goal is to be the world largest mobile library. To assist people who love reading to become leaders and the leaders to become readers,\u201d Grebe said. \u201cWe are grateful to the Libyan government and Benghazi to permit us in this nation to make friends and partnerships.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Logos Hope is encouraging cultural unity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The coming of hundreds of people from different cultural backgrounds to accomplish the task of enlightening the world is not a small feat. For Libyans, for example, foreigners are a rare sight. Grebe said,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMany Libyans were thrilled to meet foreigners. It is unusual for them since there is no tourism. With nearly 60 nationalities on board Logos Hope, this creates a unique atmosphere for inter-cultural exchange.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
