Story

I was 14 attending my biology classes, delving into the fascinating details of the human body, learning such intriguing knowledge of how our heart and brain works. I soon discovered myself researching further into these topics, entirely consumed by the medical field, all because I sat in a biology class one day with an open mind and an open book, unbeknownst of all the fascinating knowledge I was to uncover. Now imagine how many classes just like that with dedicated teachers can open the heart and minds of other curious children, leading to our future leaders, doctors and scientists changing our future for the better.

Hi, my name is Daneen, I'm 16 and am a student in Brighton College Abu Dhabi. I aspire to work in the medical field using my skills to better the healthcare system globally.

I reach out to you for your support in a worthy cause that will gift underprivileged children a well-deserved chance at creating a bright and fulfilling future for themselves i.e. providing them with education.

I believe that education is one of the most important things in a child's development. Education should not be a privilege; in fact, it is a basic human right that every child should have.

Unfortunately, there are currently 26.2 million children in Pakistan who do not have access to education which limits their ability to achieve their potential.

That is why I am participating in the Ambassadors for Change Program, joining hands with The Citizens Foundation (TCF), a highly esteemed organization, dedicated to giving children across Pakistan access to quality education and the tools for a better future. TCF currently has 2,033 school units across Pakistan, educating 301,000 students. They are reaching out to those children who are unable to afford schooling and to give them a chance of a better education.

This opportunity is important but requires funds to ensure that these children's dreams come true.

My goal is to raise 1,800 dirhams, which is enough to fund an entire school year for 3 children, hopefully changing the trajectory of their lives by preparing them for future opportunities. This is where I need your help to make their dreams a reality as donations are vital in raising these funds. No matter the amount each donation can make a big difference and positively impact access to quality education for children in Pakistan.

Your donation will go a long way in enabling a bright future.

How do you help?

It is quite simple, you can:

-donate however much you are able to, through this campaign online

In the words of Leo Buscaglia- ‘Change is the end result of all true learning’

Whether you are a parent, a student or simply an individual looking for a meaningful contribution, help us change these children’s lives, for the betterment of their future and for society.

Thank you for taking your time to read my campaign.
