Under the slogan ‘Prioritising their Education’, Qatar Charity (QC) has launched a campaign to support educational projects in 25 countries worldwide.
This initiative coincides with the beginning of the new academic year.
Education is considered one of the main strategic areas of Qatar Charity’s work and aimed at supporting children’s right to education. This is especially crucial as the number of children deprived of basic education continues to rise in many parts of the world, particularly in countries facing crises and natural disasters.
The campaign aims to assist with and cover educational costs for students. This includes providing school uniforms, covering tuition fees, building and furnishing schools, as well as offering scholarships and sponsoring students.
The campaign’s projects include constructing a preparatory school in Somalia, supporting Al-Fajr School in Albania, implementing a scholarship and student sponsorship project in Ghana, building and furnishing a vocational school in Syria, giving scholarships for university students in Palestine, and constructing two classrooms in a school in Niger, along with other initiatives.
The campaign aims to assist underprivileged families facing significant challenges in meeting their children’s daily needs for food and clothing. It also seeks to support thousands of families who cannot afford their children’s education expenses, as students rely on the donations of generous individuals to cover their educational costs.
The campaign targets several countries, which are Palestine, India, Jordan, Yemen, Lebanon, Pakistan, Syria, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Turkey, Kyrgyzstan, Somalia, Morocco, The Gambia, Chad, Mali, Senegal, Ghana, Côte d’Ivoire, Djibouti, Niger, Bosnia, Albania, Kosovo and Tunisia.
The ‘Prioritising their Education’ campaign supports the right of children to education, particularly as the number of those deprived of basic education continues to rise due to increasing crises and conflicts around the world. Qatar Charity therefore urges philanthropists and generous individuals in Qatar to donate to the campaign to meet the educational needs of underprivileged students.
Donations to the campaign can be made through Qatar Charity’s website under the link (https://qch.qa/EduEn).
Also, a ‘Home Collector’ can be requested through the app (qch.qa/appen), in addition to dialing 44920000 for this purpose. Furthermore, benefactors can donate at Qatar Charity’s branches, as well as at its collection points in the commercial complexes.
