World Vision hands out learning items for students’ ‘joyful’ return to school

CHRISTIAN humanitarian organization World Vision has launched its annual “Backto-School” campaign which hopes to make the return of students to school in the next couple of weeks joyful and inspiring to finish their studies.

Themed “#OTW: A Journey for Hope,” this year’s initiative aims to help schoolers get back on track with renewed hope by providing new sets of learning kits to some 24,000 marginalized children in the Philippines.

Each kit contains a new school bag with sets of paper and notebooks, writing and coloring materials, scissors, and an eraser. Raincoats and umbrellas are also included for those in vulnerable areas.
