Back to School Giveaway

In September 2022 ISK with the help of all our donors organized a back-to-school giveaway to encourage and promote education to the low-income elementary school children. Backpacks, stationery and writing materials, among other things, were given away to the makoko children. 
We used the opportunity to initiate 1-on-1 discussions with the children, learn about their various interests and accentuate the vital role that an education could play towards helping them attain these aspirations. ISK noticed the children’s learning environment is not conducive [see photos] for the children hence we need your support in building a better school for these children.
