Every morning, Loy walked to school with a heart full of dreams but a bag nearly empty. Her mother, struggling to provide for their family, couldn’t afford to buy her the books and pencils she needed for class. Some days, she borrowed from friends; other days, she simply listened, hoping to remember as much as possible. But without the right materials, keeping up with her lessons became harder and harder.
One day, Loy’s life changed. Through FOCEI’s education support program, she received brand-new dozen of notebooks, pencils, and benefited from the donated textbooks. The joy on her face was unmistakable. For the first time, she could write her notes without worrying about running out of paper. She could practice her sums and complete her homework on time.
“Now, I can study well and do my homework without any problems,” Loy says with a bright smile. “I want to be a teacher when I grow up so I can help other children like me.”
Loy’s story is just one of many. Something as small as a notebook or a pen can be the key to unlocking a child’s potential. Through the generosity of our donors, we have provided many children with the supplies they need to succeed in school. But there are still more waiting for help.
