Sharjah schools to receive AED300,000 donation to support distance learning

WAM

The Big Heart Foundation will be donating AED300,000 to schools in Sharjah.

The move is part of the organisation’s support for distance learning programmes implemented in the country due to the coronavirus outbreak.

The entity’s contribution will be used by the Sharjah Private Education Authority (SPEA) to purchase tablets for students who are currently in schools that run on charitable funding.

Ensuring that youth continue to receive the same standard of education in Al Ahliya Private Schools is one of the foundation’s top priorities.
