TOKAN Foundation for Children and Young People

Equity is so much more than a word - it is our driving force. At TOKAN Foundation, we believe that access to quality education should be a basic human right, and no child should be so denied because of their or their parent’s socio-economic status, disability, gender, health status, religious beliefs, amongst other factors.
