In response to the devastating
impact of war on education in Tigray, Tinsae Humanitarian Charity
Organization (THCO) launched the "Education for All"
project to support students in some of the region’s most affected areas. With a
total investment of 2,000,000 ETB, THCO provided essential educational
materials to 10,461 students across 11 schools in Enderta,
Mokeni, and Enda Mokeni Weredas.
Project
Objective
The initiative seeks to restore
access to education for children whose learning has been interrupted by the
ongoing conflict. By supplying key school materials and psychosocial support
through community engagement, THCO aims to rekindle hope and provide a pathway
back to the classroom.
What
We Provided
- Chalkboards,
chairs, and Desks for all 11 schools
- Exercise books and pens for students
- Clothing and Footwear to support the dignity and well-being of children affected by displacement
Why
This Matters
The war in Tigray has forced many
families to flee their homes, leaving schools damaged, closed, or converted
into shelters. Thousands of students have lost access to formal education. This
project responds directly to that crisis by ensuring students have the tools
and environment needed to resume their studies.
Our
Approach
THCO worked in close collaboration
with:
- Local education authorities
- School administrators
- Community leaders
This coordination helped us identify
the most vulnerable students and ensure transparent, needs-based distribution
of supplies.
Impact
This initiative is more than just
material support. It sends a clear message to students: “You are not
forgotten.” By investing in their education, THCO is investing in the
long-term recovery and development of the region. The chalkboards and school
materials symbolize a return to normalcy and an opportunity to rebuild lives
through learning.
Looking
Ahead
"Education for All" is part of THCO’s broader commitment to child protection, youth empowerment, and post-conflict recovery in Tigray. We continue to seek partnerships and support to expand this work and ensure that no child is left behind
