Al-Burhan Co-Ed Primary School
Al-Burhan Co-Ed School opened with the goal of transforming lives of the less fortunate children living in the area of the city of Kut. With the capacity of teaching 450 children during a single academic year, it is open for both girls and boys. Before the school was opened, many of the children from the impoverished families were excluded from education. Their parents and relatives unable to fund the books oftentimes required their minors to work in order to support the household’s income. These children, unable to gain even the most basic education were enforced to live their lives without being able to learn how to read and write.
