Empower Refugee Students: Break the Cycle of Poverty Through Education 

Campaign Description:

Assalamu Alaikum and Greetings of Peace,

Education plays a pivotal role in empowering and integrating marginalized communities. Tibyan School is in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, which provides quality education to Somali refugee’s children and youth. Through exploring how education acts as a tool for community development and social cohesion, we delved into the impact of upgrading facilities on teaching and learning. It is also non-profit educational school in offering access to education and opportunities for a better future. Our aim is to shed light on education's power to change lives and foster active societal participation.

1. Mission and Objectives:

Our mission at Tibyan School is to empower Somali youth refugees through education, equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to succeed in life. Our objectives include:

• Providing a safe and nurturing learning environment.
• Delivering a comprehensive curriculum that meets educational standards.
• Fostering social integration and community cohesion.
• Empowering students to become active participants in society.

We are reaching out to you with an urgent plea for help. Our Islamic school, dedicated to providing quality education to underprivileged refugee students, is at risk of closing its doors. These children, who come from families displaced by conflict and poverty, have nowhere else to turn. Government schools are inaccessible, and private schools are far too expensive. Our school is their only hope for a brighter future.

We currently have 110 students from Grade 1 to Grade 9, learning both scientific and Islamic subjects. However, 60% of these students come from families who cannot afford the $50 monthly school fee. Without your support, these children may lose their only chance at education.

We also have 11 dedicated teachers who work tirelessly to educate these students. They earn just $250 per month, which is barely enough to sustain their own families. 

Additionally, we need $500 monthly to cover school rent and $25 per student for transportation costs for 30 students who walk long distances to school, often arriving exhausted or missing school altogether.

Our Urgent Needs:

1. Student Sponsorships:
   • 66 students (60% of 110) cannot afford the $50 monthly school fee.
   • Total Needed: 66 students x $50 = $3,300 per month.
2. Teacher Salaries:
   • 11 teachers need $250 each per month.
   • Total Needed: 11 x $250= $2,750 per month.
3. School Rent:
   • $500 per month is needed to keep the school running.
4. Transportation Costs:
   • 30 students need transportation at $25 per student.
   • Total Needed: 30 x $25= $750 per month.

Total Monthly Goal:

$3,300(Students) + $2,750 (Teachers) + $500(Rent) + $750 (Transportation) = $7,300 per month
