My Mission
Girl's Education In Poor Regions
Being a physician, I know that most diseases can be prevented by simple awareness. Knowledge empowers individuals. It not only changes their own life, but also makes the world a better place for everyone. This multiplies many times over by educating the girls who then effect a generational change.
No part is remote enough in this global village of ours to make us immune to festering diseases, either microbial or social. Education is our main defense. In under-developed countries, girls education is usually ignored by their families and governments. In collaboration with my alumni association ,RMCOF, I have made educating girls in remote and poor regions , my mission.
We adopted a village in a far flung region of Pakistan devastated after the great 2010 flood and constructed 322 housing units. We also built two schools exclusively for the girls in this area.
The revenue generated by the sale of the artwork goes towards the school.
