Education for All: 1,000 school kits for children in Benin

Access to education is a fundamental right, but for thousands of children in Benin, the lack of school supplies remains a major obstacle. That's why MY BARIKA launched the "Education for All" project, an ambitious initiative to distribute complete school kits to over 1,000 underprivileged children.

Complete kits for success

Each kit contains the essentials for a successful school year: a backpack, notebooks, pens, pencils, a ruler, and geometry tools. These supplies, often unaffordable for the most vulnerable families, make all the difference in a child's educational journey.

School mentoring: long-term support

Beyond distributing school supplies, MY BARIKA offers a school sponsorship program for the most deserving students. The selection criteria are demanding: a minimum average of 12/20 and ranking among the top 5 students in their school. Selected students benefit from personalized mentoring, tutoring, and summer programs.

Academic competitions

In partnership with ASSEEN, MY BARIKA also organizes spelling and math competitions in the Borgou region. More than 12 schools and 48 students participate in these competitions, which promote academic excellence and foster positive competition between schools.

You can support this program by making a donation or sponsoring a child at mybarika.org. Every contribution counts!
