2. Children's University: During weekends, we give classes to 46 students about sports, art, science, computer, languages, and drama for students in neighboring villages who are older for Assalam International School.
3. Vocational training for single moms and young ladies: We provided vocational training to single moms and young ladies and they are working for the KangaAfrica brand. 40 single moms and 19 young ladies were able to learn sewing and provide income for themselves after the training under Assalam’s social enterprise brand “KangaAfrica,”
