A campaign to increase local visibility
A part from the international visibility on the platform of GlobalGiving: Kole Intellectual Forum is fully campaigning to increase its local visibility among the community every Sunday during the school days. Girls are engaged to visit the sick within the community, visit the sick at the hospital or help them of what the organization can afford or to move to the prisons to see the inmates, to pray with them or to encourage them during that difficult time. Or sometimes they would just be sent out for a country walk to refresh themselves from the stress of learning.
Through all these exercises, the students of Kole Intellectual Forum in one way or another is learning something of value in their lives or refreshing their mindset out of school environment. Above all, they are also letting the community to know about them of what the organization is for, what they do, how they do it, and so on…
