It Started with a Simple Act of Care

In times when it’s easy to turn away, you chose to lean in. Your generosity made it possible for hundreds of families to receive the food they needed to get through the month.

Packages of rice, flour, oil, sugar, and dates were handed to parents who had been quietly stretching what little they had. What you gave didn’t just fill pantries—it lifted the weight off someone’s shoulders, even just for a moment.

As we launch into a new school year, we are reminded of the incredible power education holds to change lives—and the vital role you, our donors, have played in making that happen. Your generosity isn’t just about school supplies; it’s about providing hope, opportunity, and the keys to a better future for students in some of the world’s most underserved regions. By contributing backpacks, pens, pencils, and more, you’ve given hundreds of children the tools they need to step into the classroom ready to learn and thrive.

A Life-Changing Gift for Just $24

As students in the West prepare for a new school year, excitedly filling their backpacks with everything they need to succeed, thousands of children in East Africa are facing a very different reality. For many of these children, the simple tools required for learning—like notebooks, pencils, and backpacks—are luxuries they can't afford.

But you can change that. For just $24, you can provide a student in East Africa with the school supplies they desperately need to pursue their dreams. 

Give to Learn to Grow proudly honours the remarkable life of Hodan Nalayeh, our inspiration and Visionary, as we mark five years since her passing. Hodan’s dedication continues to drive our mission, and we are excited to share the milestones achieved in her name.

For just $5, less than the cost of your morning coffee, underprivileged students get the textbooks they urgently need to continue their education.

 The Give To Learn To Grow Foundation proudly announces the inspiring reopening of the Khadija Abdi Hussein Langadhe School following a challenging year of closure due to regional war. This event is more than just reopening doors; it symbolizes the indomitable resilience of a community that stands strong in the face of adversity.

Exactly one year ago, you embarked on a life-altering adventure with us, supporting our mission to build computer labs for underprivileged children in East Africa. Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the mighty African Giant, was a physical feat and an extraordinary trek that has forever transformed an entire community.
The camaraderie within our group was unwavering, and your shared commitment to making a difference fueled our determination to get to the top. We knew that by conquering the mighty Kilimanjaro, we could bring positive change to the lives of underprivileged children, providing them with access to technology and digital learning through computer labs.

Last week, the brand-new A.S.N middle school building opened its doors for a special ribbon-cutting & grand opening celebration where hundreds of community members, parents and faculty members came out to be part of this historic occasion.
