ZCSS: Furthering Education

Updated 30 October 2013
In third world countries, there is the misconception that secondary and higher education is not as important as literacy and primary education.  Therefore children who are fortunate to attend primary school and to learn to read and write, often do not have the opportunity to study further. 

Often students have the desire to study further but need a push to get over the financial hump of post-secondary education.  This was the case for two Polytechnic students in India.  Syed Abbas and Mohd Amir needed financial assistance to complete a 3 year diploma course.

Through the support of Zainabiyya Child Sponsorship Scheme (ZCSS) these young men were able to complete and pass the Diploma course and have taken admission into the 2nd year Bachelor in Engineering course.  InshAllah they will be able to successfully graduate from the program and build a solid future for themselves and their family. 



Be it supporting a child in primary or secondary school education, ZCSS gives the gift of knowledge to thousands of students around the world.  

Support ZCSS
Sponsoring a child through ZCSS undoubtedly begins a domino effect that carries over ten fold.  When you help educate a child, you are helping educate a nation.  Let’s give education to everyone, because everyone deserves a chance to learn.

Zainabiyya Child Sponsorship Scheme works in Kenya, Tanzania, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Haiti. We sponsor over 5000 students in six countries ranging from Kindergarten to University Education. For more information about ZCSS please email zcss@world-federation.org to request a brochure with detailed information about the scheme.
