Let’s renovate an elementary school in a village in Iran

According to IRNA and ILNA, 1.5 million students are studying in unsafe schools in Iran. Collapse in school wall or roof and explosion of old oil-burning heaters are two main causes of such incidents at schools, especially in rural areas in Iran. A number of incidents have occurred since 2012 that highlight the need for help.

• In Shin Abad, two girls died and other students were severely burned after an oil-burning heater exploded in a classroom in Piranshahr.
• In October 2018, Donya Veisi, a little cute girl, died when a wall collapsed in a school in Kurdistan.
• Four girls died on Dec. 18, 2018 because of a heater explosion in Osveh Nemoneh School in Zahedan.

These tragic incidents are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to students being injured or killed in some unsafe facilities across rural areas in Iran. I’m going to raise $2000 for additional work for an elementary school in a village called Jangsara, which is located in eastern Guilan, Iran. Please note that some activities have already been done with prior donations. For example, we built a wall surrounding the yard of the school making sure the students do not fall into the adjacent hill connected to a dangerous graval road. In addition, we fixed some water pipe networks. Please feel free to check out the pertinent pictures. Nonetheless, we would appreciate your continuous support to complete the renovation.
