Expired

The second year of our Year 7 project and hopefully the equivalent of a second RIS cow will be on it's way to a family in need. As part of 'our unequal world' topic, the Geography department are fundraising 1000aed to go towards improving health and nutrition across the world.

Health and Nutrition

AED 1,000.00

About the Cause

Poor health and nutrition negatively affect children’s school attendance and ability to learn. We implement school feeding programs that look for alternative ways to ensure sustainable supply of nutritious foods to school children and young people in urban and marginalized areas. 

In addition, contaminated water and poor sanitation are big factors that result in the death of children worldwide. In our programs, we always include what is called WASH which means Water, Sanitation & Hygiene. This is done through the design and construction of child-friendly and gender sensitive facilities for sanitation, such as latrines and hand-washing stations. We also provide clean water supply by building water wells and raise awareness about the importance of sanitation and hygiene.
