Vulnerable Students Struggle to Attend School
In the Nancholi community, many orphans and vulnerable children face significant challenges in accessing education due to the inability to pay school fees and afford basic writing materials. These financial barriers prevent them from attending school, which limits their ability to learn, grow, and secure a brighter future.
Without support for school fees and essential supplies like notebooks, pens, and pencils, children in Nancholi are often forced to drop out or miss out on crucial educational opportunities. This not only affects their personal development but also contributes to ongoing cycles of poverty in the community. By providing targeted school support, we can help ensure that these children have the tools they need to succeed in school and beyond.
Provision of School Fees and Supplies Keeps Children in School
The donation from Luena Foundation was used to pay school fees. This financial support has allowed many students to stay in school, preventing dropouts and ensuring continued access to education. The remaining funds were used to purchase basic school supplies, including notebooks, pens, and pencils. These materials are essential for the students to engage in their studies, complete assignments, and participate actively in the classroom.
