When you pack a school kit, you are helping kids like Samrawit Mawucha, a grade 4 student in the Tigray region of Ethiopia. ✏️💛

Samrawit dreams of becoming a pilot when she grows up and enjoys studying Mathematics.

Samrawit's school kit was distributed by MCC partner Meserete Kristos Church's Development Commission (MKC-DC). MKC-DC supports vulnerable children in the area whose families are unable to send them to school.
_

This summer, help 30,000 kids like Samrawit attend school by donating 30,000 school kits by August 31. Whether you assemble 1 or 100 kits through our School Kit Challenge, your generosity will help kids around the world learn and grow.

Bu there's more! Post a photo of your school kit packing group on social media, and you'll be entered to win a pizza party courtesy of MCC. Two prizes will be given — one for the most creative photo of school kits and one for the most school kits shown in a single photo.

To enter, post your photo to social media, tag in your post and use the hashtag . All photos posted to Facebook or Instagram by August 31, 2026, will be entered to win a pizza party.
