Zainabiya Changing lives since 1981 ZCSS 2015 ReportSUCCESS STORIES Primary Education Mostafa Ali's story is a great example of how ZCSS has been and still is a beacon of hope for those who are living in abject poverty. Mostafa is a ZCSS scheme beneficiary, living with his mother, Marium Bibi, who is a single parent. As she struggles to provide basic needs for her children, providing them with quality education was beyond her means. Mostafa was sponsored by ZCSS which enabled him to maximise his potential. Mostafa Ali after successfully completing his primary and secondary education is now a student of Higher Secondary (Science Stream). He stood first division at Secondary examination. Marium Bibi is grateful to ZCSS and says: “So many thanks to ‘Allah’ that my son completed his t2v0 educational stages, Primary and Secondary. Now he is a student of Higher Secondary Science Stream. I am grateful to ZCSS”. Higher Education Minaz Vakil was the first ZCSS beneficiary. He completed his primary, secondary and university education through the ZCSS scheme. Today, Minaz is the Cluster Head of one of the top banks in India. A ZCSS sponsored education lifted Minaz and his family from the dregs of poverty and gave them the dignity and opportunities every human being deserves. “Verily knowledge is the life of the hearts, the light of the eyes from blindness and the strength of the bodies against weakness.” 1st Imam Hazrat Ali a.s.
