Inabie has already distributed more than 678 thousand school kits for the 2026-2027 school year

The National Institute of Student Welfare (Inabie) reported that it has completed the delivery of 38% of the school supply kits for the 2026-2027 period, with a total of 678,925 packages distributed to various educational districts in the country.

According to the institution, the distribution process has already concluded in 33 educational districts located in the National District and the provinces of Santo Domingo, Santiago, Barahona, and Bahoruco, benefiting 1,574 schools.

Inabie indicated that the delivery will continue progressively until all educational districts are covered before the start of the next school year. After receiving the materials, each educational center will be responsible for organizing the delivery to the students through their fathers, mothers, or guardians.

For the 2026-2027 school year, the program plans to benefit 1,806,872 students in the national public system, distributed across 6,577 educational centers.

The kits include school supplies and a uniform consisting of a polo shirt, pants, socks, and shoes. For the primary and secondary levels, they also contain notebooks, colored pencils, a graphite pencil, an eraser, a pencil sharpener, a ruler, and a geometry set. For the preschool level, materials adapted to the needs of that educational stage are provided.

As explained by Inabie, the distribution logistics begin at their warehouses, from where the packages are sent to collection centers in the educational districts and subsequently transported to the schools.

The institution noted that the program’s objective is to provide students with the necessary resources for the start of classes and to support families by reducing some of the expenses associated with the purchase of school supplies and uniforms.
