A member of the International WeLoveU Foundation (hereinafter referred to as WeLoveU) carefully checked school supplies and placed them in a basket. These gifts were prepared for children who cannot attend formal school.
In Botswana, many children are unable to attend school due to various hardships. To support them, the government operates the “Out of School Education for Children” (OSEC) program, but the budget is insufficient to fully meet the needs of all children.
To help out-of-school children get closer to learning wherever they are, WeLoveU decided to provide educational supplies. They quickly prepared essential items such as notebooks, pencils, pencil sharpeners, erasers, colored pencils, crayons, and school bags decorated with the WeLoveU logo.
On July 27, a donation ceremony was held at the Ministry of Education and Skills Development in Gaborone. When WeLoveU members cheered, “We Love You,” the children and parents responded enthusiastically, “We Love You!” That day, 70 children received school bags and supplies.
“I am confident that the children who now have school bags and pens will no longer feel left out, because they know someone cares about them.”
Peter Choto, Director of the South East Region, Ministry of Education and Skills Development
“Even if they cannot attend school, every child should be respected, and their dreams should come true. I hope these supplies will help both the children and their OSEC teachers.”
Markus Kangumbe, WeLoveU Member

“We hope your future grows brighter. This is the time to pave the path to that future.”
“Brighter days will come, and we believe you will all achieve great success.”
“Flowers bloom by absorbing nutrients through their roots. If you listen to your teachers and study hard, your dreams will surely come true.”
A society where every child is respected begins with equal access to education. WeLoveU (Chairwoman Zahng Gil-jah) will continue to provide support in various ways so that children can freely pursue their dreams.
