Zakia
(Mirpur 12 Slum, Dhaka)
Thanks to the generous sponsorship, Zakia is now receiving the support she needs to truly shine in her studies. She attends regular tuition classes that help her stay on top of her lessons, and she no longer has to worry about lacking exercise books, stationery, or any of the essential school supplies. With everything she needs now within reach, Zakia remains as committed as ever—never missing a single day of school. The sponsorship has also been a source of strength beyond academics. After her family’s home was tragically destroyed in a fire, her sponsor extended a helping hand during their time of crisis. That support meant more than words could express, providing comfort and hope when it was needed most. Zakia and her family are endlessly grateful for this life-changing support. It has eased their burdens and opened the door to a brighter future.
Zakia is the elder sister of two. Her father works in a garment factory. But he doesn't make much money. Her mother is unable to contribute financially to the family because she has to look after Zakia's sister. It is extremely hard for them to meet all of their expenses solely on Zakia's father's income. Zakia is very good at her studies. She never misses a single day of school. She does, however, require assistance on occasion. She needs tuition as her parents cannot help her with her studies Her tuition is 700taka per month. She also requires exercise books and other stationery. These additional expenses are difficult for her parents to bear. A sponsorship would greatly alleviate their struggles, and Zakia would be able to continue her studies without worries.
