Join us as we improve the classroom experience by turning school bags into bamboo chairs and writing surfaces, with solar-lighting kits for night study in rural homes, ensuring 5 years of school attendance with great learning conditions for every child.

Every Child Deserves to Learn!

The SeatPack Story

We locally make and distribute critical learning support tools for children in low-income schools across Sub-Saharan Africa to increase their access to great future opportunities

We do this by:

  • Providing missing classroom furniture to children in low-income schools: Distributing SeatPacks to children at scale.

  • Providing mobile electricity access to children in low-income communities: Distributing Solar SeatPacks to children at scale.

  • Providing daily school attendance data for children in low income schools: (Currently In pilot phase)  Tap & Learn wearable data system.

  • Providing support resources for Teaching at the Right Level

    (Currently In pre-pilot phase): Distributing resources for measured improvement in reading and mathematics.

a School bag

SeatPacks are $20 handmade school bags that become bamboo chairs with writing surfaces for sitting and writing in day-time classrooms (indoor or outdoor) and provide solar lighting for night-time study at home.

Every SeatPack ensures school attendance for 5 years per child, with bamboo as a sustainable alternative to wooden classroom furniture.

Get in touch for a sample based on the grades you intend to furnish.

  • 1 in every 4 school children across Sub-Saharan Africa do not get a place to sit or write during classes, turning their school attendance into a terrible experience. 

  • 2 in every 5 school children across Sub-Saharan Africa have no electricity at home, making it difficult to study after dark. 

Gifting a SeatPack ensures each child 5 years with a place to sit, write during class at school, and portable solar lighting to study at home after dark. Creating a better chance at achieving their future dreams through a daily education.

The solar lamp is really good. Now I can also prepare food while my boy is reading.

I am so happy. Now I have my own chair and my uniform can stay clean. I can also revise at home after working in the garden.
