£50.00 can feed 10 children at Star School Larama an annual breakfast, the most important meal of their day, the meal they are likely to never get without your support.
The severity of poverty has led to a situation that many girls have never seen a school
In destitute regions of Peshawar, like Larama, most adults are barely daily wagers, selling flour or driving rickshaws. Due to such poor economic circumstances, many girls are forced to work as scrape pickers or vendors to support their parents and households.
Moreover, in slums like Larama, the severity of poverty is that many girls have never seen the face of a school in their lives. Yet, many parents have expressed their desire for their children, particularly daughters, to receive an education and break the cycle of generational illiteracy.
In response, PAGE, with passionate support from donors, has established Star School Larama in Peshawar.
The school, as of 2021, hosts 28 boys and 29 girls, most hailing from destitute communities in Peshawar. Many children, with support from respective teacher Miss Amina, have been enrolled as star students and are now receiving education under an accelerated primary
education program.
Moreover, PAGE is providing inspiration for women to get educated and empower themselves.
With your support, Star School Larama can continue to thrive and set an example for more schools of it kind to be established in the area.
Please support this cause.
