Do you see that innocent face? His smile today is because of you!
Ahmed, the orphaned child who lost everything… He spent his last years within the fragile walls of a worn-out tent, leaning on his elderly grandfather, who could barely provide him with a morsel of food. He looked at other children with eyes full of longing, wishing to be one of them—to read a book, to return to a warm home where he could share what he had learned. And today, thanks to you, that wish has come true!
After years of being out of school, Ahmed has returned to his studies through the Masarat Initiative. But he is not the same as before… He has come back stronger, with a clear dream shining in his eyes: to become a doctor! He says it with confidence, as if making a promise to himself and to those who helped him:"I want to treat children like me. I want to save lives!"
His return wasn’t easy—Ahmed needed time to adjust to his classmates and to overcome the fear of being behind them. But today, he writes, he reads, and he studies his lessons with determination. He sees tomorrow as an opportunity—an opportunity you have created for him!
As for his grandfather, the man who carried him as a child and shed many tears for him, today he watches him step toward his future. No longer does he see an exhausted grandson; he sees a young doctor growing before his eyes, rising with renewed hope—all thanks to the kind hands that reached out to help him.
You may not see Ahmed every day, and you may not hear his laughter with your own ears, but trust that your generosity has painted this smile on his face and his grandfather’s. How does it feel to be the reason for this joy?
