Project Report | Oct 6, 2025
2025-2026 school year is here!

By Nancy Carre | Brighter Futures at Genanaw Kerse Memorial

This year, the school formerly known as Genet Miriam Primary School was renamed Genanaw Kerse Memorial School, honoring the vision and generosity that continue to inspire the work of Genanaw Foundation. The renaming marks a renewed commitment to expanding educational opportunity for children in this community.

Thanks to the continued support of our generous donors, we once again provided essential school supplies for every student — including notebooks, pens, pencils, and other classroom materials. This year, we were also able to provide textbooks, giving students and teachers a stronger foundation for structured classroom learning. Families have expressed deep gratitude for the reliable support that helps their children stay in school.

While we celebrate this progress, the needs remain significant. The children still lack desks, school uniforms, bookshelves, backpacks, lunch boxes, and access to a computer lab. Classrooms remain under-equipped, and resources are limited. Yet the atmosphere at Genanaw Kerse Memorial School is one of hope and determination.

We are profoundly grateful that, through your generosity, we have been able to provide the basics — and to demonstrate that even modest, consistent support can transform the learning experience for these students.

Looking ahead, our goal for 2026 is to furnish every classroom with sturdy desks, provide each child with a school uniform, and begin establishing a small computer lab to introduce students to digital literacy. With your continued partnership, we can ensure that every child at Genanaw Kerse Memorial School has the tools and environment they deserve to learn and thrive.
