HOPE’s Zia Colony School Visited By Standard Chartered Bank’s Motivational Training Team.

It was a very interesting day for the students of Zia Colony’s School belonging to HOPE, an educational NGO in Pakistan . It was not just interesting but entertaining too and by the end of the activity they were all enlightened to new ideas and new ways for self-employment that they otherwise would never have visualized by themselves.

HOPE & SCB Team

The SCB team consisted of expert trainers of entrepreneurial skills and what they aimed at was in implanting in the young minds new visions of entrepreneurship that they could hopefully use once they were finished with their studies. HOPE an educational  NGO in Pakistan, prepares these young students to become mentally and physically alert  and eager receivers of such valuable information.

HOPE & SCB Team

The SCB team devised schemes to test whether the young students possessed any entrepreneurial capabilities  – and the SCB team was surprised to find out that they were not let down – in fact they were quite encouraged with the results of the activities.
What the SCB team did was divide  the students into teams and dared them to come up with whatever business propositions that came to their  young minds. And what they came up  with was amazing.

One team proposed a whole set-up  of mobile phone retailing business inclusive of all services. Another team came up with brand retailing of clothing. And yet another with setting up of Shaadi Halls, considered a very lucrative business. There were more, of course, like a chain of beauty salons, boutiques, restaurant outlets etc.

The SCB team was planting new ideas in the minds of these students of HOPE’s Zia Colony School – ideas that they probably could use when grew up.

Satisfied that their job was well done, SCB team shared lunch boxes with all the students and spent some time in an open discussion.

Dr Mubina Agboatwalla, Chairperson of HOPE and child specialist in Karachi, has been the driving force in setting up all of HOPE’s  Schools and Hospitals  –  and in ensuring they are successfully and efficiently run  – which is why these hospitals and schools  have been  extremely  popular in the areas where they have been established.  Dr Mubina Agboatwalla, Chairperson of HOPE and child specialist in Karachi  has always maintained that the health and education assistance provided to the needy  should be of excellent quality.
