Another success story

MASS, an organization that helps students to achieve their dreams through scholarships is changing the lives of young people in Chitral and other parts of Pakistan.
MASS scholarship recipients, more than (200 students) from Lower and Upper Chitral are studying in various institutions in Chitral and other cities in Pakistan. All these students have compelling stories and here we share one.

Farooq from Mandagh Awi is one of the brilliant students who is studying at Hasan Academy Islamabad. Farooq was born as a normal child. Unfortunately, in his early childhood, Farooq fell down and lost his hearing from a head injury. His parents couldn’t afford his treatment. As a result, he lost hearing and stopped talking.
Around two years ago, one of our MASS volunteers contacted us with his story. With the help of our kindhearted friend, amazing team, and generous donors, we took him to Aga Khan University Hospital in Karachi, Pakistan for treatment. Farooq’s hearing improved and he started talking again, however as a long time had elapsed between his accident and treatment, he couldn’t get his hearing back completely. MASS then decided to send him to Hasan Academy Islamabad which is a school for special children. At Hasan Academy in Islamabad, MASS provides Scholarships for all his expenses. Farooq is a shining star and is achieving excellence in his studies. A few months back, Farooq met the then President of Pakistan, Dr. Alvi with his fellows for his best performance in School. Farooq and many other MASS recipients are grateful to the MASS team, volunteers, and our generous donors for changing and saving their lives.
