Why your contribution matters…
• 50% of all Pakistanis cannot read or write
• 65% of rural Pakistanis (60% of the total population) cannot read or write
• 70% of women cannot read or write
The good news is that YOUR DIL has changed these numbers. For example, YOUR DIL’s efforts have helped to raise the literacy of the township of Orangi to 70 percent.
You can help…
The cost of your ticket will educate one child for a year.
