Suas Educational Development

Suas Educational Development is a registered charity in Ireland.[1] The organisation, which has traded as STAND since 2024,[2] aims to tackle educational disadvantage in India, Kenya and Ireland and has an ethos of youth development.[3] Suas was founded by a group of students from Trinity College Dublin in 2002,[4] and as of 2018 had a reported annual income of over €1.2m.[5] Suas partners with several education NGOs in the developing world, in particular in India and Kenya,[6] in order to provide education to underprivileged youth.

The charity's overseas programmes include 'Education for All', which is intended to provide support to education projects in India and Kenya.[citation needed] Schools in the program include several in Kolkata, in Nairobi,[7] and in Mombasa.[citation needed]

The charity's activities within Ireland are coordinated via a network of college-based societies involved in volunteering and fundraising.[citation needed] A mentoring programme is also run for transition year and fifth year secondary students from disadvantaged areas in Dublin.[4] The charity also runs literacy programs for younger children.[8][9]
