Although they are thrown away, there is an effort that gives girls the opportunity to learn by donating.
Chance to learn from your children
Afghanistan is one of the lowest literacy countries in the world. Especially female literacy rate is low, third world worst.
The reason for this is because education for girls was forbidden in principle during the former Taleban administration, the collapse of the educational foundation due to intermittent civil war, the labor of children due to poverty, and the cultural background such as the early marriage of girls Yes. JOICFP of international cooperation NGO recruits school bags that have finished using all over Japan as "a memorable baggy cell gift" in order to support such studies in developing countries and improve literacy.
We are doing international support activities donating school bags and stationery to girls in Afghanistan. Why donate a school bag? That is because the school bag has a distinctive shape and color, and it becomes a visual symbol of children attending school.
It seems that parents who are reluctant to attend school are also considering changing their consciousness "I want my children to have school bags and I want them to attend school."
By carrying a school bag, a chance to receive education is born, which gives life a great opportunity.
If there is a school bag that you no longer use, just do not throw it away, why do not you give a smile to children?
