In late 2023 e3kids asked for your help, and you responded!
e3kids is making an urgent and heartfelt plea on behalf of a small school in Bangladesh, Kenya, a slum community outside of Mombasa. Recent flooding has ravaged the school, causing the collapse of its walls and foundation, threatening the education and future of countless children.
By coming together and extending a helping hand, we can rebuild more than just walls. We can reconstruct the dreams and aspirations of these children.

E3kids is partnering with Consolata Education Center in Bangladesh slums to assist repairing the walls damaged by recent flooding in Coastal Kenya. Education indeed plays a crucial role in breaking the cycle of poverty, especially in the areas like Bangladesh where living conditions are challenging. Providing secure buildings, desk, chalkboards can significantly contribute to establishing a firmer foundation for education, ultimately offering a pathway out of poverty for many individuals in these communities.

Their mission is to foster academic excellence among their diverse student body and cultivate future global contributors. With 150 students and 8 dedicated teachers, the school is resolute in breaking the cycle of poverty through education.
This small slum school encounters various obstacles, primarily due to inadequate infrastructure, limited resources including books, technology, and curriculum. Additionally, a significant number of students hail from families living in extreme poverty, with parents earning less than two dollars a day. This financial strain greatly impacts their ability to afford school fees and educational materials.
To alleviate these challenges, e3kids International intervenes by equipping the school with essential support such as school uniforms, curriculum materials, library books, computers, and meals for both students and teachers. This assistance ensures that teachers can focus on educating students without the added burden of hunger and resource scarcity, enabling a conducive environment for learning.
