PROMISE PACKS®
International School Supplies & Hygiene Kit
Around the world, millions of children are unable to attend school simply because their families are unable to obtain or afford basic school supplies. These children, particularly girls, are at greater risk for exploitation and a life defined by crushing poverty. In the same way, the lack of access to the most basic hygiene supplies, and the risk of insect-borne illnesses like malaria can rob children of their health, happiness, and hope.
I didn’t have a ruler, backpack and colors so I used to borrow from my friends but now I will not spend time waiting for my friends to finish their work before I start mine.

OF MALARIA DEATHS ARE CHILDREN UNDER 5
Children under the age of 5 are the most vulnerable group affected by malaria. In 2017, they accounted for 61% (266,000) of all malaria deaths worldwide. The Promise Pack includes an insect-repelling blanket to protect children from malaria and other insect-borne diseases. Your group can provide tangible help and a clear message that someone cares. The school supplies found in a Promise Pack can enable a child to continue his or her education.

Is your team ready to make an lasting impact?
In this school and this town, children truly appreciate the smallest gestures. What made them the happiest is that the bags weren’t empty. Inside, there was a blanket to keep them warm during winter, a hygiene kit to encourage them to take more care of their personal hygiene, and stationery.
