Scholastic Journey is a non-profit corporation founded in 2009 to provide an opportunity for children around the world to attend school.  Many families are unable to provide their children with the supplies necessary to attend school; items like school uniforms, text books, backpacks, papers, pens and pencils are outside the means of many families in severely impoverished areas.

 

The mission of Scholastic Journey is to enable children to attend school by providing them with these supplies.  Provisions will be purchased in the children’s’ own community, in an effort to also help stimulate the local economy.

 

Scholastic Journey aims to fill the void in education left by extreme poverty.  The organization has committed to begin with five elementary schools in Bunatan, Bali, Indonesia.  Bali has a population of about 3.1million people (recorded in 2005), 93% of whom adhere to Balinese Hinduism.  Bali is renowned for its highly developed arts, including dance, sculpture, painting, leather, metalworking and music.  Unfortunately, a series of natural disasters, political coups and terrorist attacks severely affected tourism, bringing much economic hardship to the island.  The average annual income in Bunatan and surrounding areas is less than $500, not allowing most families to provide an education for their children.
