FMH Made

Me Dream Big'….

……Is the message reflected from the eyes and is hidden in the smile of innocent students of

ABNI schools.

Walking through one of the formal schools of ABNI in Lakhu-Dehar, an innocent smiling face of

Rabia Iqbal, looking out of her classroom window grabbed my attention. The shiny eyes of the

seven year old, class one student, reflected happiness and showed signs of gratitude that she

being an orphan was receiving education. She has four brothers and three sisters and she is the

youngest of all. She has never felt love deprived because her father died of paralysis or her

mother of heart attack as her brothers work as carpenters and fulfill her and the rest of the

families needs. Belonging to a poor family going to school was not even in her deepest

imagination but thanks to FMH'S education program the dream became a reality. She is been

provided with free books and uniform and enjoys the ten minutes walk, with her sister, from

her home to school.

Rabia is a hardworking, diligent and a keen student. Her favourite subjects are English and

Urdu. In her leisure time she loves playing hide and seek but education is the foremost.

Pursuing medicine is her aspiration. She can only achieve her goal of becoming a doctor if we

donate generously. By putting ourselves in her shoes and looking at the world through her eyes

we may realize how privileged we are. Thus, lets join hands to secure a future and change the

destiny of such children and their generations to come.
