Scholarships for the Christian Minority
In northern Pakistan, education is not free. On an average income of $100 per month, it is next to impossible to enroll your children in school, and even more challenging if you come from generations of illiterate parents and grandparents or have never received an education yourself.
This is what is is like for Christians in Pakistan. Of the 4.5 million Christians in Pakistan, 4 million of them are illiterate. These communities do not have the same rights or opportunities as their Muslim neighbors, and often times, the towns in which they reside are physically unsafe to send young Christian children to school for risk of persecution. In Pakistan, these Christians are some of the most marginalized in society.
Our vision is to lift up the most vulnerable communities; to equip them with an education and empower them to break these cycles of poverty.
Not only are their individual lives worth investing in, raising up the next generation of Pakistans leaders is what will bring transformation to this troubled region. If we can send one of these kids to school, we know that, being raised with integrity and Christian values, they could be the one who invests back into their community and bring lasting change. Not only are their individual lives worth investing in, raising up the next generation of Paksitans’ leaders is what will bring transformation to this troubled region.
