Meet Samir, who is inspired by a great teacher

Samir lives in block D of the Geneva Camp with his mother Shahida and his father Mohammad Shamim. His father supports his family of four with the monthly wage of $89 he earns as a barber. Samir’s mother is a very kind hearted individual who inspires Samir to do good. Another person he reveres is his instructor for Urdu, English and Arabic, Mr. Sakir, who works hard for their community. Samir wants to mitigate poverty after finding employment, and hopes to help all poor children to have free access education. Like many of his friends, Samir loves to play cricket. He also likes sports such as football [which Americans call “soccer”]. Samir has a way of telling jokes that makes people around him laugh. He would like to find a job in a good company after completing an MBA degree.

You should know …
Samir’s teacher Mr. Sakir embodies the very best that OBAT Helpers hopes its schools in the camps can
provide. More than just giving students a high quality education, teachers like Mr. Sakir offer an inspiring positive role model, an example of how kids in camp should give back to the community after they have received the tools they’ll need to achieve their dreams.
THE AVERAGE COST PER YEAR OF SAMIR’S EDUCATION FROM NOW UNTIL NINE YEARS LATER WHEN HE FINISHES  HIS MBA, IS $1,027. HELP SULEMAN GET HIS MBA DEGREE AND BRIGHTEN HIS FUTURE.  YOU CAN FUND ANY NUMBER OF YEARS YOU WISH TO. YOUR SUPPORT WILL MEAN THE WORLD TO HIM AS WITHOUT IT, HE CANNOT DREAM ABOUT AN EDUCATION AND WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE A LIFE OF POVERTY.
