Furnishing Futures by Furnishing Classrooms

At the Zetu Foundation we envision a world tomorrow where every African is literate enough to contribute to themselves and there community.

We ensure this by equipping children in rural schools with the basics that support sitting and learning in classrooms by delivering the SEATPACK: a $15 school bag that also turns into a bamboo classroom chair with a writing board (and menstrual pouch for adolescent girls) at no extra cost to the school children.
