This project will provide 3,050 underprivileged students in the rural villages of Sierra Leone with all necessary school supplies and a uniform for the upcoming school year.
The COVID-19 pandemic affected all of us in some way this past year, and our organization is no exception. Due to the pandemic, we are experiencing a shortfall in our annual fundraising. However, despite our challenges, we will continue in our mission to provide students with a free education this coming school year.
As part of our free, quality education initiative, EduNations will be providing school supplies and uniforms to approximately 3,050 students this coming school year - our largest student population ever with the addition of our new Senior Secondary class starting this fall! This project will help us recover some of our losses we incurred through the pandemic, so that we are able to provide all of our students with quality and necessary supplies.
These school supplies and uniforms are vital to each child's success in the classroom, and many, if not all, of our students could not afford these materials if we did not provide them. We believe that a free, quality education is key to a child rising out of poverty and living to their full potential. Through assisting them in education now, we believe that they will be able to make a difference in their own communities in the future.
