School Uniform Vouchers

As one can see, and with this time of year, we have spent a considerable amount of time helping with schools, and the children being able to go to school..Here in Guyana the children need to have a uniform and shoes or they cannot attend school. They do not get any lunch or snacks provided either. They are not charged for any tuition, but must provide their own supplies ( books, pencils, paper etc.) Many children cannot go to school because of poverty and no funds for school. Many of the children have to ride the bus ( a fare is charged ) which also limits many children from attending . Opportunity is the way out of poverty and we feel education will provide opportunity for these young children. Hence, we have put in much time and much Humanitarian effort to aid as many children as we can....which is a very few compared to the many needs!!!

This project is for school vouchers to be used for uniforms for needy children. This lady is being interviewed for TV about our Voucher Program. The Humanitarian project has provided 1200 vouchers.

Pix 3. This shows how valued these vouchers are, as many parents were standing in line in the hot sun for hours to collect a voucher.
