Meet Rehana* from a small village in Tando Allahyar. Growing up, she dreamt of going to school, but with no school nearby, that dream felt out of reach. Rehana got married young and focused on caring for her family, but her desire for education never faded.
Fast forward to today, she has learnt to read, write and count – skills that are opening doors she once thought were closed forever. It’s all thanks to a Tearfund-supported programme which includes the Female Adult Literacy Centre.
Rehana shared that, ‘Growing up without access to education, I dreamt of going to school but never had the opportunity. Today, through the Female Adult Literacy Centre established with Tearfund's support, my dream is turning into a reality.’
And the impact doesn’t stop there. Rehana’s newfound confidence is shaping her family’s future too. Her son is thriving in school and her daughter is all set to start this academic year!
This is more than just literacy. This is the power of education to transform lives and inspire communities.
