Sometimes, it takes more than a quick fix to support a student in need. That’s where The Long Hug comes in—Handshake Aid’s programme designed to tackle the bigger challenges that can affect a student for years, whether it’s throughout their schooling or beyond.
Think of it as wrapping a student in a long, steady embrace of care. Whether it’s providing ongoing access to essential school supplies, funding specialised learning tools, or supporting a student’s educational and emotional journey with tailored resources, The Long Hug is all about creating lasting impact.
This programme is focused on personalised, school-centred support—taking the time to understand what each student truly needs to thrive and ensuring those needs are met in a meaningful, enduring way.
With The Long Hug, we’re not just meeting today’s challenges; we’re helping build a brighter tomorrow for students who deserve every opportunity to succeed. 💛
