Salaamun Alaykum
Education is the prerogative of every child. It gives the less fortunate an equal opportunity as their privileged counterparts to realise their dreams. It brings about an inherent and permanent change in a person’s thinking and capacity to do things. With the Zainabiya Child Sponsorship Scheme (ZCSS), that is exactly what we aim to achieve; to give children an opportunity to turn their lives around.
In this report, you’ll read about some of the success stories that your donations have helped to achieve. The ZCSS continues to concentrate on higher education to enable the youth to achieve qualifications that will enrich their lives, and those of their families. Every opportunity given to them is down to you, our generous sponsors.
Sadly, the fact remains that we have to keep turning away students who want the same proespects for lack of funds. It breaks our hearts and often, we struggle for words to console them. However, we remain committed to providing education to students in our own community in countries where we operate.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our sponsors for your continuous support and generosity. I hope you will enjoy going through this report and gaining an insight into how the scheme is operating and changing lives. As always, we welcome any feedback you may have.
With duas,
Shabbar Dhalla
