Maham and Sameer sitting next to their father are in the OHG program at the
Sheikhupura site. Their father is blind and cannot work. Mother Rukhsana is the sole provider and is raising six children. We are excited to come alongside this family and support education for 2 very bright and deserving children.

BENEFICIARY FAMILIES ARE GRATEFUL

A beneficiary family with four children. The eldest child is with the OHG program. It breaks our heart when weare unable to provide for all the children. The children are taught to help at  home, be humble and kind to their siblings and parents. The children  teach  their younger siblings all the good manners they learn at school.

CHILDREN LEARN THROUGH ARTWORK ACTIVITIES

Children  at Sheikhupura site learn all about colors and enjoy a yellow day

CHILDREN SHARE ARTWORK WITH THEIR FAMILIES

Every week children work  on  a different artwork project. Not only the artwork is displayed in school but they also get to take it home and share their experience with their siblings and parents. The parents of these children are so grateful to have their children experience opportunities that  they would never be able to provide for them.
