HOPE in the Mountains of Kashmir

Mesmerizing snow capped mountains, fast flowing River Jhelum and Neelum, beautiful fruit trees and streams, all together make Kashmir a natural wonderland. Despite this magnificence, the people of Kashmir are deprived of a lot of blessings of life. As the unemployment rate is very high in AJK, therefore, the underprivileged class can’t afford to send their children to school. However, with the passion to serve humanity, HOPE, an NGO in Pakistan, reaches out to all those who no one reaches out to and has established several schools on different mountains of Kashmir. These schools are giving free and quality education to the poor children who cannot even afford to have a sweater or a single pair of socks to prevent themselves from cold even in extreme weather.
In order to help the deprived community of this region and extend a helping hand towards the deserving community, HOPE an educational NGO, has established two Formal and thirty Informal Schools in AJK. Some of the schools are till tenth grade while the others are Primary Schools. Altogether, there are 750 students enrolled in different HOPE Schools of AJK and 36 teachers employed who are educated community girls. 

HOPE which is running under the leadership of Dr Mubina Agboatwalla, child specialist in Karachi,  is proud to be spreading hope and education even on the mountains tops where no other NGO or government organization is working to eradicate education emergency!
