The purpose of the project

Main Goal:

Improving the quality of services

Description of the purpose of the project and ways to achieve it

The purchase of school buses is necessary to ensure safe, regular, and timely transportation of students to and from educational institutions.

Problems and solutions resulting from project implementation

The purchase of a school bus will solve the problem of the lack of organized transportation for students living in remote areas or settlements, which makes it difficult for them to get to school on time and safely. Currently, some students are forced to travel independently by public transport or with the help of their parents, which creates risks of delays, unequal access to educational services and additional social burden on families. The purchase of a bus will ensure equal access to education, increase transportation safety and contribute to the stable organization of the educational process.
