Support Our Mission
Help us provide quality education to pastoralist children
Why Your Support Matters
Shaykosh Boarding School is a lifeline for hundreds of pastoralist children. While we have achieved much in student outcomes, years of infrastructural neglect and lack of modern resources now jeopardize our sustainability and impact.
With joint efforts recently revitalized by community, diaspora, and school administration partnerships, it is clear that more support is urgently needed.
Your contribution, no matter the size, will directly impact the lives of these children and help secure their future through education.
