Mission Critical – “Education for All”
Approximately 75 million people in Pakistan can neither read nor write. Some 25 million youths are out of school. This high illiteracy level is the main cause of poverty and many social evils. Poverty forms a barrier between a child and the education he or she rightfully deserves. Changing this situation demands each one of us to act now, and Diya can be your act of kindness
