Empowering Kids through education — one backpack at a time.
Supplies for Smiles is a student-led initiative raising funds and collecting school supplies for shelters and under-resourced schools in Pakistan.
About us
Our mission is to provide school supplies, which we consider as essentials in the US, to underprivileged children in shelters in Pakistan. I decided to start this project to give back to my community in Pakistan. Growing up visiting my parents home country, l've seen necessities taken for granted in the US be considered luxuries in Pakistan. I believe that education should be a right for everyone, and access to school supplies is essential to enable learning. That's why we raise money to fund necessary school supplies for children in shelters to create opportunities and promote their learning.
How We Work
Fundraising
Every dollar helps bring essential school supplies to children who need them most.
Purchasing supplies locally
We buy directly from local stores so every donation helps both students, communities and small businesses so we give directly from local vendors to schools taking away any overhead costs.
Delivering to schools
Nothing beats the moment we hand over new supplies personally to the children and see the excitement in every classroom.
