Due to our gracious donors and the lifting of the Health Crisis restrictions, 2022 provided an opportunity for Deki to fully reopen our Nahla Primary School. In terms of impact, we were able to enroll over 450 children back in classes and provide them with a free quality primary education close to home in their village.

Again, due to our gracious donors and changes in the Health Crisis restrictions, we were also able to launch preschool classes at our second facility, Hayden Primary School. As mentioned previously, this campus was constructed in an area that is home to a significant number of children who are unable to attend school.

And finally, as we closed in on the opening date for Hayden, we readied the campus adding some small facility tweaks and a few additional school supplies as the final touches before the big day.

Names, privacy, and removal requests More

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
