With the goal of ensuring that no child is deprived of the necessary school supplies for the new school year, the Cyprus Red Cross is organizing a “Back to School – With Lots of Children’s Smiles” and is calling on the public to provide practical support to school-age children and families facing financial difficulties.
The campaign runs from July 20 through September 4, 2026, with school supplies being collected at the local offices of the Cyprus Red Cross branches.
