“Soukoulouvi” means “pupil” in Ewe. Before every school year, UGE gives school kits to children from low-income families.
01 — The programme
Starting the year with what you need to learn: an exercise book, a pen, a ruler, and the certainty that someone believes in you.
In some communities, buying school supplies weighs heavily on family budgets. Children arrive at the start of the school year without the basics they need to follow lessons.
Soukoulouvi is UGE’s education-support initiative. Members collect the supplies, prepare the kits and hand them directly to pupils, working with schools and communities.
The 2023 edition took place in Dandoukpé, Togo, and supported about 120 pupils. Over the years, UGE’s supply distributions have benefited several hundred children.
