PARTNERSHIP PROPOSAL TO HELP US COLLECT THE NEEDED NUMBER OF LAPTOPS
Because of the war, and a lot of children being displaced, a lot of them have to study online.
In distance learning, a laptop is a basic need.
Ukrainian children need laptops for quality education.
Ministry of Education of Ukraine wants to collect 217.000 laptops for Ukrainian children. RUSH Foundation aims to help the ministry collect 100.000 laptops out of this number.
THE PROCESS
THE GEOGRAPHY OF THE LAPTOP DISTRIBUTION
Laptops, collected under the “School, we are together!” campaign will be distributed to the following regions [oblasts] of Ukraine please see the map. Laptops will also be distributed to other communities that do not have face-to-face education due to the absence of bomb shelters.
ADDRESS BY THE MINISTER OF EDUCATION OF UKRAINE
Today Ukrainian children, as never before, need our unity and our help.
For the past three years, first because of the [COVID] pandemic and now because of the full-scale war, Ukrainian children have been studying online. This fact has reflected on the quality of their knowledge and their soft skills. The longer [the war lasts], the more difficult are the consequences for children, educators, and for the whole Ukraine.
We cannot let the enemy deprive our children of the right to have quality education.
The foremost needs of Ukrainian children are: bomb shelters, school buses, school textbooks, and laptops [for educational purposes].
The Ministry of Education of Ukraine launches the "School, we are together" campaign to address the needs of Ukrainian children, mentioned above. We use all available resources from the side of the Ukrainian state. But Ukrainian children still need your help.
Oksen Lisovyi
Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine
