Hi, I’m Riham, I’m an 11-year-old girl. I believe that kindness can change the world, one small act at a time. I love volunteering and spending time helping those in needs, especially children and families from underprivileged communities. Giving back gives me joy, and I dream making the world a fairer, kinder place for everyone.

When I’m not volunteering, you will probably find me horse riding (my favorite hobby) or playing with adorable stray cats. I believe every person and animal deserves to be cared for and loved.

I’m here today to help give Pakistan brighter minds and build more schools so education can reach more children.

Many girls in Pakistan don’t get to go to school because parents worry about the long and sometimes unsafe journeys. That’s why The Citizens Foundation, or TCF, builds schools close to communities and hires only female staff. This helps parents feel safe and comfortable sending their daughters to school.

Right now, only about three out of ten kids in Pakistan get to go to school. Some don’t go at all, and some go but aren’t taught at their proper grade level. Only a small number get to study in the right grade for their age.

TCF is working hard to change this by providing quality education, especially for girls, so they can learn, grow, and have better chances in life.

It doesn’t take much to help. For just 50 AED a month, you can educate one child. With 1,250 AED, you can support a whole class. And with 7,400 AED, you can support an entire school.

Every little bit helps. When you support TCF, you give children hope and a chance at a better future. You can also donate your zakat to TCF, as it is a trusted and worthy cause.

As ambassadors of TCF, we aim to make sure that every child in Pakistan is valued and gets the education they deserve and so parents don’t have to decide weather their son or daughter goes to school.

If you want to learn more or help, you can visit TCF’s website at www.tcf.org.pk or call their office at +97158 661 6276.

Through this fundraising campaign, I hope to make a real difference. Thank you for supporting my cause and helping me help others. Even a small contribution can make a big difference. Together we can build a brighter kinder future for the children of Pakistan.
