Help Shukria Save Her Dreams

Donation protected
Story: In a world where education is a priceless gift, one father's unconditional love and sacrifice shine through. Bashir Rezayi, a devoted father from Afghanistan, is determined to give his daughter, Shukria, the opportunity of a lifetime. After surviving a tragic suicide bomb attack on her class, Shukria's dreams of pursuing higher education seemed shattered. However, against all odds, she received a full scholarship to study medicine at the prestigious University of Lynchburg in Virginia.

Challenge: While Shukria's scholarship is a beacon of hope, there is a significant obstacle in her path. Due to the absence of a functioning US embassy in Afghanistan, she must travel to a third country, Pakistan, to obtain a US visa. With the lengthy visa process estimated to take up to ten weeks, time is running out for Shukria to secure her spot at the University of Lynchburg.

Solution: Bashir Rezayi, who has been unemployed since the Taliban regained power, is willing to go to great lengths to ensure his daughter's education. Despite the risks and challenges, he has decided to explore the option of selling one of his kidneys to cover the exorbitant costs of a black-market visa. Bashir's selflessness and determination embody the unwavering love of a father and the immense value he places on education.

Call to Action: We invite you to join us in supporting Bashir Rezayi's extraordinary act of love and sacrifice. By contributing to this campaign, you can help secure Shukria's future and enable her to pursue her dream of studying medicine at the University of Lynchburg. Every dollar donated brings her one step closer to covering the expenses of her visa, travel costs and cost of accommodation and ensuring that her scholarship is not lost.

Join us in this incredible journey of compassion and hope. Together, we can turn Bashir Rezayi's act of love into a powerful testament of the transformative power of education. Let us ensure that Shukria's dreams are not shattered but rather uplifted by the unwavering support of a global community.
