Back-to-School Boost for Struggling Kids | Barbados News

from Barbados News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Eden Lodge Youth Charitable Trust is stepping up to meet soaring demand for its back-to-school program, pouring over $459,000—up 24% from last year—to support 669 students across 84 schools, from nursery to secondary. With other charities pulling back, the Trust is fielding urgent requests from parents, principals, and counselors, helping kids facing hardship like family unemployment, illness, or loss. Their mission? No child should be denied education because of poverty. Backed by major sponsors like Sandy Lane Charitable Trust, Carib LPG, and Scotiabank, they’re rallying the community to ensure every child gets the tools to succeed—and build a stronger future for all.
