ADSactly Initiatives - Underprivileged Children Access Education
It is our pleasure to present @SchoolForSDG4, a charity that has been operating successfully on the Steemit platform for the last couple of months. Let me share how steemit blockchain is changing the lives of underprivileged children in Bangladesh and helping the founder @Azizbd run the project.
Introduction
School For SDG4 is a charity School founded on April 20th, 2016 by Mohammed Abdul Aziz. At first, it was a personal initiative created by the founder, to help the children who couldn't afford to go to luxury schools or had to leave school because of financial difficulties.
The school was established in Gashitula, Mukambari Rd, within a small hut. Children from slums started attending school again and they began dreaming to become doctors, engineers, and so many other professionals.The main objective of our school is to facilitate local underprivileged children, to give them access to quality education and help Bangladesh achieve Sustainable Development Goal 4(SDG4).
In 2018, with help of steemit crowdfunding, the school is supporting around 60 underprivileged children.
School's Other Social Media: Facebook , Twitter, Youtube , Instagram.
Steemit Journey
In July 2016, @Azizbd joined steemit and made his first introduction post, he was not active for a long period of time after that. A couple of months ago, he noticed some steem and SBD in his wallet and started learning about Steemit.
He was determined to set up two separate fundraising accounts, for school and himself.
@SchoolForSDG4 began its Steemit Journey in June 2017.
How Steemit blockchain helped the slum Kids access quality education!
Steemit connected the slum school with global communities that support the initiative with Upvotes and Direct Donations through @SchoolForSDG4. Every donation after transaction costs, by upvote, resteem and/or direct donation for @SchoolForSDG4 goes to cover school direct expenses.
Here are Some Achievements Reached Thanks to Steemit all Throughout the last couple of Weeks:
1. School Education Materials.
The school crowdfunded for a new school laptop and got huge help from steemit Supporters. Here is the post about the school laptop. The children in the picture above are holding the new school laptop.
Mothers of the children observing of how steemit is helping their children and finding out who are the people supporting their children's future.
2. Fruit Program
Fruit program is one of the oldest weekly programmes of the school. Th fruit program has been arranged weekly since April 20th, 2016. The school gets support to run the weekly program from individual donors on steemit.

The school posts are raising moneys for the weekly fruit program and they generate some excess funds that help support other initiatives, like school material distribution, teachers wages and more.
3. Educational Programs and support
The school is helping around 60 underprivileged kids this year, in 2018. The steemit community engaged with its educational programs deeply. The school is even supporting children financially.

The school has two Al-amin's studying in it, for the second Al-Amin it is only possible thanks to the help of Steemit users and blockchain providing financial assistance.
Al-amin's sister was receiving her families monthly donation from Mohammed Abdul Aziz @Azizbd in December 2017. This donation of $18.75 ensures that Al-Amin does not has to work long hours instead it helped Al-amin return to school and leave his hard, 12-hour child labor position.
The school has taken a new room for rent, to support more kids.

The gifts for winter were sent by @girlbeforemirror.
The school Allocated toothbrushes to every child at school on November 19th, 2017.
The School Allocated traditional Bengali clothes (New Year gifts) to every mother of the children on December 31st, 2017.

Future Actions:
The School is crowdfunding with the help of @Adsactly, to support these 60 underprivileged children, who only depend on @Azizbd and @SchoolForSDG4 to continue their education. We are focusing on having our own school building which needs a huge fund. This post from @adsactly blog will generate revenue of 100SBD for the school and allow school's current operations and save excess funds for School building or land in the future. The project is also looking for a sustainable source of revenue and business opportunities to continue the charity work.

Thank you!
Kudos @Azizbd for this beautiful initiative. I also stay in a country where children are also denied the right to education just so they can hustle for additional income for the whole family. Thankfully, this trend is reducing due to beautiful people like @Azizbd and their influences in the society. I also try to help in my own little way because little drops of water make the mighty ocean .
Superheroes are not just people in shining tight costumes saving people, they are also in the form of people who do their best to impact a fellow human's life positively to the best of their ability. @Azizbd is one of those people .
He is definitely a superhero to those kids in Bangladesh.
This was beautiful.
Cheers!
Thank you for your appreciation and also supporting the cause. Also wish you best of luck. Hope you will support the cause in future.
This is so inspiring and touching. To help others is the biggest happiness one can seek. Keep doing the noble work.
I have started something like that in Pakistan and with time our scope will increase and many lives will be changed.
Absolutely. I think making life better for everyone who lives is a wonderful aspiration to base your life around.
Seeing this, i am kinda inspired. I am gonna start up something like this soon.. Helping lifes should be priotized and should be a service to humanity. Shalom!

It is so inspiring I must say, it's a source of motivation in addition. Keep up the good work and you shall greatly be rewarded.
Thanks for the appreciation and also helping and empowering women and young people in Pakistan. That's all the best way we can support our community.
Follo me plis
A child’s access to education is often determined by circumstances such as gender, location, conflict, disability and the family’s socioeconomic status – factors that exist before the child is born. These barriers exclude 61 million primary school age children from school and deny them a fair chance to reach their full potential. Worst, exclusion from school not only thwarts children’s individual potential but also fuels intergenerational cycles of poverty and disadvantage. It robs societies of a source of dynamic growth and development, and a chance to build social cohesion and reduce tensions that can spark violence. Every girl and boy, regardless of who they are or where they live, is entitled to nothing less than full and complete access to quality education. But many of the world’s poorest and most marginalized children are denied this basic human right.
Well said. Those things that are taken from people based on circumstance are some of the greatest injustices there are. Those of us who are comfortable and have influence must use it to try and rid the world of these issues.
It's so sad that all that potential is being thrown away. We are all brothers and sisters and those children had no choice in what environment they were born into.
Thanks for your nice comment.

I think education is usually rubbish but I love the getting rich part!
You are right. @SchoolForSDG4 is trying to focus on these kids who can't ensure their basic needs. Education should not be luxury and every kids deserves to get full access to quality education. Private schools charges higher fees and thus poor kids can't continue education at early age while public schools can't give enough support to thousands of kids.
Sir @azizbd is an awesome individual from Bangladesh with a heart of gold helping underprivileged persons like me as well and in several occasions donated for my medical expenses.
Steemit community is really a good support program for his cause.
I wish you best of luck sir. God bless you.
Best Steemit account by far!
Resteem guys!
Thank you for your resteem and supporting the kids .
I created a page dedicated to the food program for the school I hope one day to expand it to other programs that feed the most needy in the world. But first and foremost is the school. @cooking4charity is the new account. All the SBD earned from the account will be going to the school's food program till we have met and exceeded their needs, then I will look for other programs to help. The SP earned from this account will go to upvoting charity content and minnows. @tecnosgirl is behind this account.
a very good purpose @adsactly. to help underprivileged children, so they can go to school to seek knowledge like the other kids. I am very supportive in this regard. hopefully this goal goes well.
It is one of the most important missions that any of us can take on in the world right now.
Sure. you are right @redliest
Thank you. Adsactly is a community to leverage individual initiative and as @SchoolForSDG4 is a cause Adsactly as community can help. So it trying to give the initiative get more visibility and also the part of the post reward so School get enough fund for operation.
I'm a teacher and i think everything is done to give an opportunity to children is priceless. Look at the smile on their face. That smile is our future. Hope this spread and we can open more schools for children all around the world. This community is great.
The community is really great as it fully funding the school @SchoolForSDG4 and we are planning for school new building and land with help of steemit community supporters. I am sure many things will change if we can spread it and also the development of the project depends on the support and our effort. Keep the kids in your prayers. All the best for you.
