Delivering Educational Support to Kenya (DESK), is an organization that works to send school supplies and funds to Kenya to support students’ education. We organize and complete several fundraisers throughout the year, in addition to monthly meetings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In typical years, school supplies and funds are delivered to various schools in Western Kenya in person by Dr. Winnie Mucherah and a team of researchers from BSU. DESK is funded by not only the BSU community but by generous folx from across the country and globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
