Story


As an educator, can you imagine teaching a class of 50+ children, who have nothing to write with and nothing to write on? Nothing to eat out of? Nothing to drink from? As a child, can you imagine trying to learn how to read without a book? Can you imagine grasping basic mathematical skills without a pencil? Can you imagine learning how to write without a pen and paper?

This is the situation which faces millions of children and teachers around the world because of factors such as FAMINE, DISEASE, SOCIAL CONFLICT, WAR, DISASTER and POVERTY.

The millions of children who are lucky enough to access education are leaving school unable to read, write or do basic mathematics due to the lack of resources and opportunities available to them.

This is where School in a Bag comes in to provide pens, pencils, paper and eating/drinking implements to help children all over the world. By raising £20 for a rucksack we will be changing the lives of these children.
