Education

School and Health Kits

Even when schools are available, many children cannot attend because they lack basic school supplies. In many countries throughout the world, if a child appears at a school's doorstep without basic educational supplies, he or she is turned away.

Kits for Kids

School and health kits provide children in the developing world with important school and health supplies, allowing them to attend classes and maintain proper hygiene. Each kit contains essential supplies to last a student for an entire year. Thousands of young people have contributed to the school and health kits project, either by fundraising or assembling the kits themselves.

Local Supplies for Local Children

If you wish to contribute to this project we prefer that you donate funds instead of assembling the kits yourself. The monetary donations we receive are used to purchase school and health supplies in developing world communities, thus stimulating the growth of local economies.

207,500 Kits Shipped Already

Through the efforts of young people and the generous support of adults we have shipped over 207,500 school and health kits to disadvantaged children in more than 39 countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
