Ms. Violeta, representative of the Dubăsari Education Directorate, talks about the impact of the “HP-YMCA Initiative for Rural Education” project and the importance of the support provided to students and families in the district with the start of the new school year. Such initiatives contribute to supporting children and creating better conditions for each student to start the school year with confidence, motivation and the necessary things for school.

The school bags and backpacks donated to the Dubăsari Education Directorate will be distributed to educational institutions in the district, so that they reach the students who need support the most. By involving local institutions and teachers, the aid can be directed to the children and families for whom this support matters the most.

The “HP-YMCA Initiative for Rural Education” project, implemented by YMCA Moldova in partnership with HP Inc. and with the support of the DAAC Hermes Group of Companies, aims to support equitable access to education and stand with students in communities in the Republic of Moldova.

Through this initiative, over 18,000 school bags and backpacks will reach students in educational institutions across the country. Beyond the material aid, each backpack represents a gesture of support and encouragement for the children and their families.

The support provided responds to a concrete need and contributes to a more optimistic start to the school year, in which children can step into school with more confidence and enthusiasm, knowing that they have a community by their side that invests in their education and future.
