Empowering Brick Kiln Children through Education
Joy Foundation has launched a pioneering project to educate children of brick kiln workers in Pakistan. Our survey revealed over 200 brick kilns in our town, where children work under harsh conditions to support their families.
The Plight of Brick Kiln Children in Pakistan
A staggering 60% of brick kiln laborers are children, with 11,000 kilns nationwide, mostly in rural areas. Children are forced to work to maximize profit, sacrificing their education and future.
Joy Foundation's Intervention
With your support, we've established five two-hour schools for brick kiln children, providing basic education and paving the way for formal education. Each school starts with 20 students, including boys and girls.
Request for Ongoing Support
To ensure quality education, we need additional resources. Your timely support will enable us to:
- Provide essential educational materials
- Expand our reach to more brick kiln communities
- Offer education at their doorstep, despite challenging circumstances
Creating a Brighter Future
We gratefully request your continued support to empower these needy children. Together, we can create a brighter future for Pakistan's brick kiln children.
