Thank you for your support of The Citizens Foundation (TCF).
I would like to share with you a story to highlight the impact of your support. (Name changed for safeguarding)
One of our students, Sana, is 13 years old and works with her brother as animal breeders to support their family. They must take on this burden because their father is out of the picture and their mother has cancer. Growing up she didn't have the chance to dream. Not because she didn't want to, but because she couldn't afford to.
One day she learned about a TCF school. Now she spends her days working in the morning and attending school in the afternoon. Today, she dreams of becoming a cancer specialist so that she can take care of other people like her mother. She can study, work hard and take all of the steps necessary- except for paying for a quality education.
That's where your support came in. Donors like you are taking the one step that she could not.
Her story is not unique as we now have over 285,000 children in 1,921 schools across Pakistan. As we continue to rapidly expand, we aim to cross 2,000 schools by the end of the year!
Thank you for making stories like Sana's possible and so many others like hers. When you educate a child, you change their lives, their families, their communities, and their society.
All my best,
Eric
