Send a Child in Pakistan to School for a Year

The Coronavirus has brought unprecedented challenges to the world and affected the lives of thousands of people. At the time of writing, no cases have yet been reported in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as the Government ramps up preventative measures.

As an organization, we are responsible not just for educating our employees about preventative measures and good hygiene practices, but also those who we work with, such as children in education program (MAA KI DUA educational Schools).

Hygiene practices, such as washing hands, are a weapon against Coronavirus. Proper hygiene practices have been are a regular part of the education program, so children already have the ability to combat this virus from the outset. They are being encouraged by the education program teachers to use their knowledge to protect themselves and those around them. Without your support, this may not have been possible.

The Pakistan Government recently shut all schools until the 31^st of March, and MAA KI DUA has followed their advice and closed all Education programs. This was a major decision for the organization, as the importance of education for these children is a priority. However, considering the severity of the ongoing situation, ensuring the children and their families are healthy is most important.

As the teachers are from the remote communities themselves, they are able to check in on the children and their families to ensure that they are ok, giving advice where needed.

Thanks to your support, you have given these children and teachers and the knowledge and tools to help prevent this virus from spreading in rural and tribal communities.

We have faith that the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, and the world will be able to weather this storm as we have weathered many in the past.

Please ensure to follow your local authority’s advice on how to protect yourself and your loved ones.

Regards

Zarina bibi and the MAA KI DUA team
