BURKINA FASO, October 3, 2025 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian nonprofit, recently provided 100 vulnerable children in Burkina Faso with back to school kits to help them prepare for the new school year.
According to Usama Rashed, head of West Africa programs at Baitulmaal, the kits included backpacks, uniforms, books, stationery, shoes and other supplies.
“These supplies may seem simple, but for a child preparing to return to school, they are part of being ready to learn and participate,” said Rashed.
According to UNICEF, nearly 1.9 million children in Burkina Faso required urgent educational assistance in 2025.
