In the quiet village of Toheedabad, where dusty fields stretch under the burning Punjab sun, lives a 13-year-old girl with a heart full of ambition and a dream bigger than her surroundings. Meet Hamna Farooq—a student of Grade 7 at Adil Shahzad TAKMIL School and a symbol of what can happen when opportunity meets determination.

Hamna comes from a humble home. Her father, Farooq Aziz, works tirelessly in the agricultural fields and also serves as an Imam in the local mosque, guiding his community spiritually while providing for his four children. Like many girls in remote villages, Hamna’s first steps in education began at a local madrassa—her only available option for learning.

But everything changed in August 2022, when TAKMIL opened a school in her village.

For the first time, Hamna sat in a classroom with books, science charts, and a teacher guiding her through lessons in math, English, and beyond. It didn’t take long for her to shine. Quiet yet curious, Hamna quickly developed a deep love for learning—especially science. She dreams of becoming a doctor, not for status or money, but to heal, educate, and empower the very community that raised her.

After school, Hamna still helps her parents with daily chores, but now she does it with purpose—with a future in sight. Every page she turns brings her closer to a life where she can serve others through knowledge and compassion.

Hamna’s story is not just about one girl. It’s about thousands of girls in Pakistan who are waiting for someone to believe in them, to open a classroom door, and to say, “You belong here.”

With your support, TAKMIL is turning that belief into reality.

Because when a girl learns—a village heals.

In the quiet, mountainous village of Hirnok, nestled in District Kech, Turbat, a young girl named Durnaz Baloch dared to dream beyond the steep slopes and rocky paths of her surroundings. From a young age, Durnaz imagined herself not just as a student—but as a teacher, a mentor, a guide.

She completed her early schooling in her hometown and later moved to Turbat for higher education. But life, as it often does, presented its trials. In the middle of her first year of college, tragedy struck. Her father—who worked abroad as a driver—fell gravely ill and soon passed away. With him went the family’s sole source of income. Durnaz, with a heavy heart, was forced to put her studies on hold.

Yet, dreams like hers don’t fade—they wait.

After a period of financial and emotional struggle, she bravely returned to her books and completed her intermediate education in 2023. Alongside her academic pursuits, she nurtured a hidden gift—art. In moments of solitude, Durnaz would draw what she couldn’t always express in words: her hopes, her fears, and her dream of becoming a teacher.

That dream finally took flight when she found TAKMIL.

She joined Shaheed Pervez Akhtar TAKMIL School in Hirnok as a teacher, and it changed everything. For the first time, she wasn’t just pursuing a dream—she was living it. TAKMIL didn’t just give her a job; it gave her purpose, identity, and pride. In her own words, “People now call me ‘Teacher Durnaz.’ It is the most beautiful feeling in the world.”

Today, Durnaz stands not only as an educator but as a role model in her community. Her classroom is a sanctuary where learning, curiosity, and creativity flourish—and where every child is inspired to dream, just like she once did.

TAKMIL gave her the platform—Durnaz built the future.
And she’s just getting started.

In the remote village of Kaccha Kakar, District Rajanpur, a 10-year-old boy named Muhammad Bilal spent his days in a welding shop, not by choice, but by circumstance. With no school in his village, education was never an option for Bilal or the other children around him. Instead, he and his nine siblings lived a life without direction, helping their father in the fields and learning skills for survival rather than knowledge for the future.

But everything changed in December 2024 when TAKMIL opened a school in his village. It was more than just a building with books—it was a gateway to hope. Bilal and his younger brother were among the first students to step into this new world of learning.

Once completely unaware of education, Bilal can now proudly introduce himself in both English and Urdu. He has discovered a passion for learning, especially solving mathematics questions, and dreams of becoming a teacher so that he can give back to his village and guide other children like him toward a purposeful life.

TAKMIL has given Bilal a new path, transforming him from a boy working in a welding shop into a student with big dreams and a bright future.

Your support makes stories like Bilal’s possible. Help us continue this mission—give the gift of education and change a life forever.

In the quiet fields of Khushab, 11-year-old Mominah Zafar watches her father work tirelessly—farming, laboring, doing whatever it takes to provide for his family. With four sisters and limited resources, education was never a priority in her home.

Mominah once studied at a government school, but the learning environment didn’t nurture her potential. She struggled, her dreams clouded by the fear of being left behind. But everything changed when she joined A-Rehmat O Noor Memorial TAKMIL School.

Here, Mominah found more than just books—she found encouragement, a quality education, and a place where her ambitions were valued. Today, her parents finally see the spark in her eyes. She excels in mathematics, helps her mother at home, and dreams of becoming a teacher to help children like her.

Yet, financial hardships still cast a shadow over her future. Mominah’s story is one of resilience, hope, and the power of education. With the right support, she can break the cycle of poverty and inspire the next generation.

In the quiet village of Rajanpur, where opportunities for education are scarce, 10-year-old Dua Zehra’s dream of learning seemed impossible. With no nearby school, she was left behind while other children moved forward. Her father, a tailor, worked tirelessly to provide for their family, but his limited income made education an unattainable luxury.

But December 2023 marked a turning point when Shaheed Ashfaq Ahmed TAKMIL School opened in her village. For the first time, Dua had a real chance to pursue her dreams. She eagerly enrolled and quickly stood out as an intelligent and hardworking student, excelling in English and Mathematics.

What makes Dua’s story extraordinary is her passion for giving back. Inspired by TAKMIL’s mission, she dreams of becoming a teacher so she can educate other girls who, like her, lack access to schools. For her, education isn’t just about personal growth—it’s about breaking the cycle of illiteracy in her community.

Beyond academics, Dua is also an artist at heart. She loves to draw and paint, using colors to express a world full of hope and dreams. Her creative spirit adds another dimension to her journey, proving that education nurtures more than just the mind—it fuels aspirations.

Her story doesn’t stop with her. Her siblings have also enrolled in the same school, ensuring that their family’s future will be different from the past. The ripple effect of education is already in motion.

Dua Zehra’s journey is a testament to the power of opportunity. One school, one chance, and one determined girl can change everything.
