Children were so excited to receive scholastic materials on June 06,2021 before being enrolled to schools where LHI is implementing its SPECIAL EDUCATION FOR MOST VULNERABLE REFUGEE CHILDREN – SEMVRC Project of Educating Vulnerable Refugee Children of 7 and above years old who never attended schools.
Without intervention, refugee children, such as those at the Kyaka II refugee settlement, are set to continue living a life of poverty, with a potential future of drugs, criminal activity, and prostitution. Let’s Help International (LHI) has created a program in order to aid such children. This program provides children at the Kyaka II refugee settlement with the financial, material and psycho-social support they need to not only attend school, but to finish at least until the end of the primary level.
During the distribution vent, LHI Founder & Chairperson, Pr. Festo Nduwayezu explained to parents/guardians and other guests about the project, how it runs and how people will benefit from it.
