Little Rehmat loves being first. He’s just in junior KG, but he races to write the fastest in class and he even wants to finish his activities before anyone else! When it’s time for games, Rehmat always takes the lead, allotting roles and rules to his friends.

He loves sports and drawing, and he wants to become a doctor when he grows up.

A year ago though, Rehmat was a very different boy. He had never been to school before, and hated the thought of leaving his mother and baby sister. When he did make it to class, he was shy and barely spoke up.

With much nurture and love from his school community, Rehmat found his voice, and grew to become one of the most enthusiastic children in class. So much so that his teacher and community worker had to tell him to tone down the mischief!

Thank you for drawing Rehmat out of his shell with your gifts, support and belief in him!

By sponsoring his education, daily meals, healthcare and everything else that he needs to succeed in education, you’ve placed worth and dignity in Rehmat’s life – what an invaluable gift!

Your financial support has also mightily empowered Rehmat’s mother Muskan. She was already a tailor, but she chose to expand her skill set by completing our mehndi design course.

Today, her skills get her paid engagements at weddings and she’s so proud about bringing in an income to support her family!

Muskan is also a member of our newly launched Self Help Group for graduates from our vocational program.

The SHG is affiliated to a bank and provides the women a safe place to learn about personal finance as well as invest their profits So far, Muskan has built savings from her paper-bag making and tailoring projects with us!

Thank you for stepping into Rehmat and Muskan’s lives with the skills and opportunities they need for a bright future. Because you chose to care about their today, they can prepare for a better tomorrow!
