Education is free in Tanzania, but access to education is not. Many children in rural communities cannot afford basic school supplies such as uniforms, shoes, bags and learning materials.
As a result, some leave school before they have learned to read and write. The distance between a child and a classroom is often the price of a few everyday items.
That is a gap ordinary people can close. Notebooks, pens and a uniform are small things, and together they give a child a fair chance to learn, dream and write their own story.
