ChildFund Kiribati is excited to continue its support for the health of our youngest learners! Every three months, we distribute 20 bars of soap to 15 preschools in Betio to encourage children to keep washing their hands regularly. This initiative is part of our ongoing hygiene program.

This initiative aims to empower children to use their handwashing stations and establish healthy handwashing routines. Regular handwashing is not just a habit; it’s one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent illness and help our children thrive!

With each bar of soap, we’re not only promoting hygiene but also investing in healthier futures for our children and their communities. Together, we can foster a culture of cleanliness that will benefit generations to come!

Join us in supporting and keeping our children to stay healthy, happy, and ready to learn!

 Thanks to the New Zealand Government for funding this program and supporting the health of our young children.
