They discovered that after 12 years old the government stops paying for the compulsory school uniform which causes enormous school drop out levels in these poor communities. Wanting to help, they started designing t shirts to raise money to buy school uniforms for their friends so they could stay in school. 3 years ago Nalu started out as a green school grade 8 quest project and now they sell in 17 countries and have gained some international recognition on their path to keep the world's poor children in school.
