In 2023, in a world where social and economic inequalities continued to be a harsh reality, SIKSE remained steadfast in its commitment to support the most vulnerable populations. Throughout the year, our NGO carried out several humanitarian initiatives that directly impacted the lives of more than 50,000 people in regions of our country affected by humanitarian crises, conflicts, or natural disasters.
Among our interventions, one of the most significant pillars was the School Aid Program. We are proud of the substantial progress we made to promote access to quality education, especially for children from marginalized and impoverished communities. Here’s a summary of our achievements in this area:
- 300 Scholarships Awarded: In 2023, we granted 300 scholarships covering tuition fees, enabling many students to attend quality schools. These scholarships not only provided financial relief but also represented an investment in the future of our youth.
- Academic and Personal Support: We provided specialized support to 150 students, helping them bridge the educational gaps created by their circumstances. Our dedicated team worked tirelessly to offer academic and personal guidance, ensuring each child received the attention they needed to thrive.
- Distribution of School Kits: This year, we distributed over 800 school kits that included notebooks, pens, books, and uniforms. These critical learning materials were essential for children who otherwise would not have had access to them.
