Beheshta is a 10th grade student in Gowhar Khatoon and one of the coding class participants. She says this coding class is an asset for girls who seek careers in technology. Through this class, she has been able to achieve her dream of making her own website. “I have made a website entitled “Poor Children in Afghanistan” and the reason behind this was that I wanted to somehow help Afghan poor children who work on the streets at a time when they should only focus on their education. I can confidently say that when I upload my website on the internet people will contribute in helping these poor children by realizing the tough life they undergo.”
