Barriers to education were overcome by distributing 200 book bags filled with school supplies to Nicaraguan children whose families don't have the resources to purchase these essential items. Now they have the tools they need to go to school and learn.


Remember the first day of your school year? Most likely you had a new school bag, lunchbox, and array of shiny new school books and stationery- all the essentials to take on the new school year.  Sadly not all children will have this experience to the point where they will miss out on attending their classes because their families simply can’t afford the basic supplies for them to engage in their studies.  For some families it’s the choice between feeding their children or buying school books- unfortunately, both can not be a realistic option.

It’s estimated the thousands of children drop out of school due to poverty and instead enter the workforce to help provide for their families. Only 51% make it to the fifth grade and then move into child labor.

We don’t want class supplies to be a barrier to getting an education so we are planning to help 200 children in Managua, Nicaragua by giving them a book bag filled with all the items they need to attend their classes for the year.

Just $20 buys a book bag containing essential items and opens the door to education for poor Nicaraguan children. When you give your Mite to this project you will be impacting the lives of kids and raising their chances of staying in school.   Your love for them will be a blessing wrapped up in a very cool functional Book Bag!

We spoke with our contacts in Managua, Nicaragua, and together we compiled a list of supplies that children need in order to attend school.  We are so excited to pass out the Book Bags of Blessing filled with goodies and necessities in just a few weeks. We want everyone to join in on Project 3 so they can experience this happiness as well! Give your Mite!

We are so excited to be lining up quality durable bags for the children in Nicaragua. In our search to find a source for some quality book bags for Project 3, we have partnered with an awesome company called Madden Branded Goods. 

What’s more, Madden Branded Goods contacted one of their top partner suppliers, BIC Graphic to help and they will be printing Mite logos onto each book bag at their state-of-the-art printing facility.  
We are so pleased with the visual below and cannot wait to see the finished product in just a short time.
