Dear Pakistan Project Supporters,
As the new academic year begins and the students enter the classrooms again, our gratitude goes out to all of our Girl's Education International supporters that make so many girls' dreams in Pakistan turn into reality. $10 support covers transportation for one student for a full month. Having lived in Saudi Arabia, I am diligently cognisent of the role the tranportation or access to it can play for women. While there are numerous obstacles that women face in gaining education, having an ability to physically get to school is a basic need. $80 covers all expenses for four students for a month, while $240 covers all expenses for one student for a full year. The benefit the girls get from a year of education goes beyond the subjects they study. Although the knowledge they gain will hopefully help them secure jobs in the future, the daily skills they learn such as self-reliance, colaboration and critical thinkings will guide them in all spheres of their lives. Couple months down the line, we will update you with their academic progress but meanwhile we wanted to thank all of you that have made this possible.
With much gratitude,
Tamrika
