The English Language Teaching (ELT) Department at Tishk International University (TIU) successfully carried out a heartwarming community project to support students at Kani Gulan Primary School. The initiative, which involved donating 475 stationery bags, aimed to equip children with the basic tools they need for a successful academic journey.

The project was completed through four well-organized stages, demonstrating how thoughtful efforts and teamwork can create a significant positive impact. On January 30, 2025, ELT staff and 20 student volunteers visited the school to personally hand out the bags, receiving warm smiles and appreciation from the students and teachers.
