FAQs
Who can receive school supplies from Shidaa Foundation?
We support children in need across underserved communities in Ghana and Canada. Our donations are intended for children under the age of 18 who lack access to basic school supplies.
How can I request school supplies for a child or a school?
You can contact us directly through our Contact Us page. Please provide details like the child’s age, location, and school level. Our team will review and follow up.
What types of educational materials do you donate?
We provide backpacks, exercise books, pens, pencils, erasers, math sets, rulers, and sometimes school uniforms and shoes, depending on available resources.
How do you ensure donations reach the right children?
At Shidaa Foundation, we work closely with trusted schools, local leaders, and community organizations to identify children who genuinely need educational support.
Whenever possible, we share photos and videos of donation events on our website and social media to show the impact — including children receiving their school supplies.
However, in cases where privacy is required or we’re asked not to disclose the identity of the children or schools, we still provide general updates with:
Blurred or no faces in photos,
Location names removed, and
Thank-you notes or reports from teachers and local coordinators.
This way, we maintain transparency with our donors while respecting the dignity and privacy of the children we serve.
Can I volunteer or get involved?
Absolutely! We welcome volunteers for events, donation drives, content creation, and outreach. Reach out via our Contact page to learn more.
Is my donation tax-deductible?
Yes, Shidaa Foundation is a registered charity in Canada. All eligible donations are tax-deductible under the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) guidelines.
You will receive an official donation receipt, which you can use when filing your Canadian income tax return.
