“Back to School” Exhibition: 750 Backpacks Bring Joy of a New Academic Year to Students from Needy Families - Sarmad

Amid notebooks, pens, and colors, volunteers’ efforts converged at the “Back to School” exhibition organized on Friday by the Manarat Al-Tatawwu’ Volunteer Team in partnership with the Basata Al-Tatawwu’ Volunteer Team, to prepare 750 complete school bags containing all the supplies needed by students from low-income families across various educational stages, with the aim of bringing joy to them as they prepare for the new academic year.

The exhibition, held in its fifth edition at the Namaa Center for Volunteering in the Rawda area, did not limit itself to handing out school supplies; it was accompanied by recreational and cultural activities for children, including face painting and story reading, combining the campaign’s efforts to provide support and prepare for the school year with creating a joyful atmosphere for children and their families.

The journey of the school bags began before the exhibition’s launch, with a campaign coordinated with several sponsoring entities to purchase school needs and supplies, followed by sorting and preparation with the participation of team volunteers.
