Embracing Community Healthcare

In 2020 we jump started our maternity and children’s health programme with support from Yayasan Hasanah Special Grant 2020. This milestone reinforces our holistic approach to education. We believe that students can achieve their academic potential when they and their families are healthy and secure. Thus, in addition to providing nutritious meals to Iskul students 5 times a week, we now provide health supplements to pregnant and new mothers, monitor their progress, and teach them to manage health. In 2020 we also hit another milestone of improving water access for Omadal households, and are on our way to installing water tanks for 100% of families through a collaboration with Engineers Without Borders. Investing in a healthy childhood for our future students with nutritious food and safe drinking water will help them to excel in the classroom.
