Helping children of my Village and enable them to get an education as well as make their families living better (Just taking 1st step from my own Village)

Pakistan has over 80 million children and is suffering to fulfill their needs. Children in Pakistan are vulnerable to several development challenges impacting their safeguarding including quality of education, prevention of sexual exploitation of children, child trafficking, marriage, and labor.

Only 20.88% of children live in urban areas and have access to fundamental needs. Furthermore, 24% of the entire Pakistani population lives below the poverty line, which mainly affects rural areas. In the country, the state of the global markets is exacerbating an already very difficult economic reality. So, the rest of the children who live in rural areas are usually deprived of various resources such as clean water and food, education, and health services.

The hope for betterment

This week Amal Academy assigned us with this project in which we have to come up with the ideas for our mega project, so I thought about different plans but come up with the most familiar problem in our society, i.e the poor child labor and lake of education.

The children already doing labor have no rights. They got no health security , living style and even do not get the food for two times. I taught about taking some steps to enable these children to gain education as well as progress to developed some own business or little way of livelihood where they will not work under any authority. They will be masters of themselves.

‘’you don’t need a lot of capital to start a small business’’

Look for small openings

I came up with discussing these issues with my family member and other cousins. They decided to start this work from my village area where I usually visit and see many children wandering here and there free. they got no education, no source of livelihood and their parents are doing nothing about that.

I visited my village many times this week I was there to attend a marriage ceremony of my cousin. I saw the children and their conditions but didn't take the pictures because the villagers do not consider it good to take their children's photos to show off that we are going to help them out. so I decided not to take the pictures of them but want to show some background to that area that can give an idea of the environment there.

Look for something that can initiate the idea

Not quick, not at once but by taking baby steps one day I will be able to do something for my village children to be on a track that could guide them towards a better lifestyle and living a life that everyone deserves IN SHAA ALLAH.
