Support for Disadvantaged Kids

Currently, 12 million people are living in informal settlements in the outlying areas or city fringes, and the State Welfare Organization has taken measures to support children from poor families through education, said Anoushiravan Mohseni Bandpei, head of the SWO. “The SWO will pay the admission fee in kindergartens of kids from the three lowest income deciles,” he said, salamatnews.com reported. So far, the measure has been implemented in Mashhad city, capital of Khorasan Razavi Province.
