Voices from the schools and communities!

By Amna Hassan Kazmi | CEO

From Community Members:

1. "Joining the POG's craft club has been a transformative experience for me. It's not just about learning to create wool flowers; it's about growing confidence and a sense of community." - Saira, Madina Colony
2. "Kitchen gardening has taught me more than just planting spinach; it has introduced me to sustainable living and has given me the agency to contribute to my family's health." - Naheed, A1 Gulburg Community
3. "The goodie bag project was more than a craft; it became a way for me to explore my creativity and start thinking about starting my own small business from home." - A woman from Behari Ahata

From School Girls:
1. "The POG activities at school have been amazing! I never knew I had a talent for crafts until I joined the club. It has made me think about my future in a whole new way." - A student from Fatehgar Care Adopted Girls High School
2. "Thanks to POG, I've discovered a love for science through the kitchen gardening club. It's incredible to see the plants grow from seeds we planted!" - A student from Govt. Girls High School Wahdat Road
3. "The brainstorming sessions have been so inspiring. It's like a light bulb goes on every time we meet, giving me so many ideas about what I can do for my community." - A participant from Door of Awareness Center 09 Township

The progress report of the "Projects on The Go" (POG) in communities and schools for November 2023 highlights several key aspects of the project's impact and activities over the past three months, particularly in relation to girls and women and the enhancement of social entrepreneurship.

In the community segment, POG has reached out to five communities, with a total of 38 beneficiaries participating in various clubs such as Craft and Kitchen Gardening. The communities engaged include Sofia, Iffat, Madina colony, Nasir colony, A1 Gulburg community, Behari Ahata, and Canal Park community. The activities range from wool braidflowers and ribbon pins to kitchen gardening efforts like growing spinach, fenugreek, and tomatoes. The report indicates that a total of 38 females were involved in these initiatives, emphasizing the project's focus on female engagement.

In the school domain, POG has been active in five educational institutions, impacting a total of 229 beneficiaries. The schools involved are Fatehgar Care Adopted Girls High School, Govt. Girls High School Wahdat Road, Door of Awareness Center 09 Township, Govt. Girls High School Mansora, and Jamia-tul-Mohsinat Mansora. Challenges faced included a need for more material, while successes were marked by enhanced practical skills, great activity engagement, brainstorming sessions, talent boosting, and practical exposure. The emphasis on girls' schools underlines POG's commitment to improving the skills and opportunities for young women.

The challenges reported in the communities focused on time management, family issues, material shortages, and irregular participation of females. Despite these challenges, the communities reported enhanced skills, productive brainstorming, the creation of products, work-from-home opportunities, and notably, women empowerment, which aligns with the project's goals of enhancing social entrepreneurship.
