SchoolBOX Inc Information

SchoolBOX is a grassroots nonprofit organization committed to supporting the right of every child to a basic education. It all began with a notebook and a pencil. While in a tiny village in Northern Nicaragua Tom; SchoolBOX President and Founder, gave a young girl a notebook and a pencil. Seeing this simple gift, her father was overjoyed and said to her, ‘now that you have a notebook and a pencil you can go to school this year.’ This simple statement profoundly impacted Tom and eventually led to the creation of SchoolBOX. SchoolBOX uses simple, cost effective initiatives to allow children to go to school. SchoolBOX currently helps over 18,000+ children get a primary education on an annual basis. Our current programs enable education by providing school supplies, constructing essential infrastructure, and creating libraries. We work collaboratively with the Ministry of Education in Nicaragua and communities, in order to create sustainable solutions.
