Many poor children in countries like Laos, do not have a chance to go to school.

But today, you can join us in this fight against poverty and help poor children in Laos to continue studying.

World Vision is happy to partner your school to make a difference in the lives of children in Laos, through small and simple ways. From now till end of school term, bring as many old newspapers and clothes from home, and deposit them into the Helping Beyond Borders Recycling Bins that we will provide to your school. Suggested collection method:

Monday: Old newspapers
Wednesday: 2 sets of old clothes
Friday: Old bedsheets or towels

The money collected from the sale of the old newspapers and clothes will help provide needy children in Laos with food, clean water, healthcare, and education!
