IRS990/Desc01)EDUCATION (EMPOWERING CHILDREN) - OVER 375 CHILDREN FROM PRE-SCHOOL TO CLASS 7 RECEIVED TOP QUALITY, ENGLISH MEDIUM EDUCATION THROUGH OUR SHINING LIGHT ACADEMY LOCATED IN GILGIT, PAKISTAN. APPROXIMATELY 25% OF OUR STUDENTS WERE FROM THE CHRISTIAN MINORITY COMMUNITY THAT ATTENDED SLA ON A SCHOLARSHIP BASIS. OUR SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM ENABLED OVER 100 MINORITY CHRISTIAN CHILDREN TO ATTEND LOCAL SCHOOLS, INCLUDING SHINING LIGHT ACADEMY, FROM PRE-SCHOOL THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL THAT OTHERWISE WOULD NOT RECEIVE AN EDUCATION. THIS HAS RESULTED IN WELL OVER A DOZEN CHRISTIAN FAMILIES THAT ARE NO LONGER LIVING IN POVERTY, HAVE BUILT THEIR OWN HOMES AND HAVE ENDED THE CURSE OF POVERTY FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. ADDITIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS INCLUDE: A)LIBRARY & COMPUTER CENTER - SLI RAISED OVER $20,000 TO UPGRADE THE SLA COMPUTER LAB (INCLUDING 14 NEW LAPTOPS) AND BUILD/EQUIP A NEW LIBRARY WITH OVER 700 ENGLISH BOOKS IMPORTED FROM THE USA TO GILGIT. B)TEACHERS - OUR TEACHING STAFF HAS INCREASED TO 35 WITH NEW CHRISTIAN TEACHERS ARRIVING FROM CENTRAL PAKISTAN THROUGH A TEACHER OUTREACH PARTNERSHIP WITH FORMAN CHRISTIAN COLLEGE - A TOP UNIVERSITY WITH EXCELLENT REPUTATION IN LAHORE, PAKISTAN. RECRUITING QUALIFIED TEACHERS FROM DOWN COUNTRY REMAINS OUR TOP PRIORITY AND GREATEST NEED. C)NEW LEASE - A NEW 7 YEAR LEASE AGREEMENT WAS NEGOTIATED WITH THE CURRENT LANDLORD THAT WILL ALLOW SLA TO EXPAND ITS OPERATION BY OPENING A NEW PRE-SCHOOL IN A BUILDING NEXT DOOR. THIS WILL ENABLE INCREASED ENROLLMENT TO MEET GROWING DEMANDS FOR QUALITY ECD EDUCATION BY THE LOCAL COMMUNITY AND LEAD TO SUSTAINABILITY BY 2015 AFTER MINIMAL CAPITAL INVESTMENT.
