Literacy is more than reading books—it’s reading the world. In Somalia, where decades of conflict and displacement have fractured the education system, illiteracy keeps millions trapped in cycles of poverty, isolation, and inequality.
We partner directly with Somali communities to design solutions that are culturally relevant, sustainable, and inclusive. Whether it’s delivering solar-powered tablets to a remote classroom or training a village teacher, we listen first—and act with purpose.
Lifesaving Care
We raise awareness about the life-changing power of literacy across Somalia and beyond.
In the rural village of Garasbaley, a small, sun-drenched primary school once operated with only a blackboard and a few torn notebooks. Students sat on the floor, eager to learn but with nothing to read.
In 2024, we partnered with local educators to deliver over 500 culturally relevant storybooks and two solar-powered digital tablets loaded with Somali and English learning content.
In nomadic regions near Galkayo, traditional schools are out of reach for thousands of children who move frequently with their families. That’s why we introduced mobile literacy circles and Sun Books tablets—solar-powered, durable devices pre-loaded with hundreds of lessons in Somali and English
With just 10 tablets and a local youth ambassador, we’ve reached: Over 220 nomadic children in 3 mobile camps 80% of learners now recognize the full Somali alphabet Girls' participation increased by 65%, thanks to culturally sensitive group sessions
Your support is more than a donation—it’s a lifeline. Every book you help provide, every tablet you fund, and every teacher you empower brings a child closer to reading their first word, writing their first sentence, and dreaming their own future. In a country where so many have been left behind, your contribution means children learn, mothers rise, and communities thrive.
Thousands of Somali children face crisis conditions—conflict, drought, and displacement. Your support delivers emergency learning kits, books, and solar tablets where they’re needed most.
We’re not just filling gaps—we’re building lasting systems of literacy and learning. From training teachers to empowering youth, your support plants seeds for generations to come.
Your contribution goes beyond meeting basic needs—it empowers individuals to reclaim their independence and dignity. By supporting vital programs like education, job training, and mental health services, you’re helping refugees build a sustainable future.
