Meet Zubair. It was the devastating floods of 2010 that opened school doors for 12 year old Zubair. His family lost their house and all their possessions. Then came APPNA, which built his one room house and established a primary school in his village that transformed his life.

Zubair's father is a "Tandoorchi". He expected his son to follow the same path, but his son had dreams. He wanted to attend school and make his own path. When APPNA school opened in Munirabad, this dream became a reality for Zubair. Our volunteers saw his drive and convinced his father to send him to school. He excelled in school and covered five grades in three years. He recently stood first in his district for fifth grade exams. This was all made possible by your generosity and now we need your help to further Zubair's dream of getting secondary education.
