Challenge

An education for these children can provide hope and a lifeline to a future out of hardship - on a world scale, educating the future generation is a key force towards human development and global stability. Many children go to school without any learning materials, and have to struggle to remember what they're being taught in their lessons. In addition, financial conditions, child marriage, and child labor means that attending school fall off the list of priorities.

Solution

A School kit contains everything a young person needs to maximize learning. Receiving a kit provides them a reason to attend school. Each kit is filled with essential resources that will enable a child to write, draw, color, calculate and express themselves. A quality education for these children can provide hope and a lifeline to a future. Educating the future generation is a key force towards human development and global stability. A kit costs $20. We need kits for 500 children.

Long-Term Impact

Each day, we keep getting requests for supporting of children who lost their parents in tragic situations. This initiative provides long-term support to 200 children allowing them to break out of illiteracy and poverty. It project brings improvement of children's health, awareness of their rights and makes them more employable in the long run.
