Personal message
The past few years has been challenging for learners and educators. As they prepare to return to school the foundation through sponsorship would like to make it a special occasion for our learners and educators by encouraging them with stationery supplies to inspire and motivate them as they begin the new school year.
In preparation for the academic year, the foundation annually engages in a stationery drive - to support learners from disadvantaged communities with stationery. Over the years through the generous contributions of sponsors we were able to donate over 1500 stationery packs to schools and children's homes. It is our hope to continue encouraging 1000 learners from children's homes in 2024 with stationery packs to inspire and motivate them as they begin the new school year.
