Charities step in to help needy students with school supplies


Several community initiatives have been launched to ensure that children from low-income families have access to essential school supplies for the upcoming academic year.

From donation drives to charity campaigns, these efforts aim to give both expatriate and local students the tools they need to succeed in the classroom.

Our Responsibility, a group of passionate Bahraini volunteers, has set the stage with three initiatives.

“Our first event, in collaboration with Y K Almoayyed and Sons, will witness 40 backpacks filled with school supplies being distributed,” the group’s founder Rayana Sayyar told the GDN.

“In addition, the Kewalram family will donate 75 backpacks, also filled with school supplies, and those will be delivered to families.

“Our final event will take children from an orphanage in Bahrain to LuLu Hypermarket to shop for back-to-school supplies. They will each receive a voucher of around BD30 and will be free to pick out the items they need.”

She added that all three events aim to help more than 300 children.
