The Baloch tribe whose misfortunes clash sharply with more affluent surrounding areas largely populates Jacobabad, Sindh Pakistan. With a female literacy rate of only 22.3%, The scarcity of schools combined with conservative local attitudes toward female mobility has terrible consequences for an adolescent girl in Jacobabad: if there is no school in her village, she is forced to drop out.
Fast Rural Development Program with the support of donors build the schools where no schools available for the poor communities, we have established five primary schools at different villages where 1500 students getting free education, but at the same time we need the vehicle / bus or pickup to pick the female and male students who are living far from our schools, we have so far arranged one pickup and so Qingqi for the pickup the students but still this is not enough to cover the students. We are providing the free transportation to 100 students only but we still need four hundred student to transport them to there villages and school.
We are very thankful to our respective donors who really support us a lot to help the poor children to reach the school and request to share this report with other friends and colleagues to help us get more funds and reach the more villages.
