Razia Jan
I am really happy because I was there during her presentation;
she did an amazing job by helping the girls of Afghanistan. She opens their paths for a brilliant future;
she provided them with chances to get an education. We know that in some
country like Afghanistan it is hard for women to attend schools, especially
because of the war. During her speech, she said that a lot of people tried to
stop her but they didn't impede her from build the school. Further, she
described some bad situations that women go through in Afghanistan, it is sad compared
to other countries, how women have their freedom to do whatever they want. She also
described how hard it is for the girls to get in schools. She explained how she got the money to build
the school. Finally, I know that it is difficult but I am happy at the same
time because now these girls have an opportunity to get their education. I am
very thankful to Raiza; she opens their door for success.
