Allow us to dream |
If only... If only the funds were available. In a world where ... 4 121 million children (28 million in Pakistan) have no opportunity to attend primary school (UNICEF) 4 Two-thirds of the world's 799 million illiterate adults aged 15 and over are women 4 More than 20,000 people die every day as a result of extreme poverty (THE END OF POVERTY - Jeffrey Sachs) 4 Half the world — nearly three billion people — live on less than two dollars a day (Anup Shah) 4 Sales of pet food and pet care products in UK were £2,357 million in 2004 (Euromonitor)
... surely funds are available to bring hope to the poor!
We dream of a world where children can just enjoy being children
The exuberant children at the Miracle Ministries' school for the families of brick kiln workers We dream of a world that cares for the forgotten and the downtrodden
Children at the CAP Mercy Mission school for the disabled We dream of a world where children have a future to dream about
Dennis has a scholarship to study at FCCollege. His dream is to become an engineer We dream of a world where everyone who has too much shares with those who have too little
Meal time at the Abba Home for the children of broken homes We dream of a world where God's love touches the lives of his children
Zia Colony, Karachi We were moved by the needs of this run-down industrial area of eastern Karachi for some time. George Thomas is a pastor of the Full Gospel Assemblies in this area. His wife, Fehmida, was a teacher. Finally in January 2008, our dream came true. George and Fehmida opened their school -- the Morning Star Primary School. With more than 100 children and a newly constructed extension, the school is growing. George's church (which meets in the same building, has also grown. A dream come true.
