Dear Friends. Thank you for your donations and support. So far SHD has managed to raise $17,115 to help the needy students. Society for Human Development has  been Reaching out to the poor villages in Toba Tek Singh, where some families are sending their kids to school for the first time. SHD has helped these poor families to pay their admission fee, to get the books, stationary and uniform for the year.

Recently 70 children (aged 3-9 years and belonging to the extremely poor families) have been supported financially and now all children are coming to St.Peters School in Toba Tek Singh. SHD is also facilitating them in transportation and helping them on monthly basis as well. SHD has also managed to get the donations from other sources apart from GlobalGiving. 

The children are very much excited about the school. During this quarter, SHD has targeted to support the poor children whose parent’s works at the brick kilns. Brick kiln owners usually exploit these workers by not paying them the wages according to the government notified rate. That’s why majority of the workers live below poverty line and lack basic facilities like safe drinking water, electricity, and bathrooms. Their children have no financial resources to continue their education.

Recently, SHD has organized a football match in the school with the newly admitted kids. The kids enjoyed during the whole match and were also awarded with the appreciation medals at the end of the match. It was a great activity for the kids to interact with one another. 

The Scholarship program for the intelligent but needed students has proven to be a success. Many students have found hope of continuing their education, through this project. We would like to request all our donors and supporters to keep supporting our cause .
