IRS990/Desc0EDUCATION (EMPOWERING CHILDREN) - OVER 700 CHILDREN FROM PRESCHOOL TO CLASS 10 (HIGH SCHOOL) RECEIVED TOP-QUALITY, ENGLISH-MEDIUM EDUCATION THROUGH SHINING LIGHT ACADEMY (SLA) LOCATED IN GILGIT, PAKISTAN. APPROXIMATELY 20% OF OUR STUDENTS WERE FROM THE CHRISTIAN MINORITY COMMUNITY AND ATTENDED SLA ON A SCHOLARSHIP BASIS. OUR SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM ENABLED 31 MINORITY CHRISTIAN CHILDREN TO ATTEND LOCAL SCHOOLS,INCLUDING SLA, FROM PRESCHOOL THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL THAT OTHERWISE WOULD NOT RECEIVE AN EDUCATION. TEN ADDITIONAL STUDENTS RECEIVED FULL SCHOLARSHIPS TO ATTEND COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THEIR FAMILY'S HISTORY. THIS HAS RESULTED IN 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)TEACHERS - OUR SLA TEACHING STAFF HAS INCREASED FROM 44 TO 67 TO ACCOMODATE SCHOOL EXPANSION AND GENDER SEPARATION AS REQUESTED BY THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. SEVERAL MASTER TEACHERS WERE HIRED TO PROVIDE QUALITY EDUCATION IN MATH, URDU AND SCIENCES AND TO PROVIDE MENTORING FOR LESS EXPERIENCED TEACHERS. IN ADDITION, THEY WILL SERVE AS SUBJECT SECTION HEADS TO PROVIDE LEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCE FOR THE ORGANIZATION AND WILL ASSIST THE PRINCIPAL IN CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT AND IMPROVEMENT. b)SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM - IN 2019, SLI PROVIDED SCHOLARSHIPS FOR PRE-SCHOOL, ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE SCHOOL, HIGH SCHOOL, COLLEGE, AND UNIVERSITY STUDENTS WITH PLANNED EXPANSION IN 2020. OVER $48,000 WAS ALLOCATED FOR THE FOLLOWING SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS: i. PRIMARY EDUCATION - FORTY-FIVE PRE-SCHOOL THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL MINORITY CHRISTIAN STUDENTS RECEIVED $24,426 FOR TUITION, BOOKS, UNIFORMS AND OTHER EXPENSES. MOST OF THE RECIPIENTS ATTEND SHINING LIGHT ACADEMY. ii. SECONDARY EDUCATION - TEN CHRISTIAN STUDENTS RECEIVED $24,402 FOR COLLEGE TUITION, FEES, BOOKS AND PERSONAL EXPENSES. THESE ARE THE FIRST CHRISTIAN STUDENTS TO ATTEND COLLEGE IN GILGIT, PAKISTAN AND IN THE HISTORY OF THEIR FAMILIES. MANY ARE VOLUNTEERING AT SLA AND FOUR ARE EMPLOYED AS TEACHERS AND ADMINISTRATORS. THIS HAS BECOME ONE OF THE BIGGEST BENEFITS OF OUR LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM - YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN THAT HAVE A PASSION FOR PROVIDING HIGH QUALITY EDUCATION AND PROJECT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES AND A DESIRE TO SERVE LOCAL COMMUNITIES. c)NEW CLASSROOMS - SLI PROVIDED $20,000 FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF SIX NEW CLASSROOMS AT SHINING LIGHT ACADEMY TO BE COMPLETED BY THE SPRING OF 2020. THIS COMPLETES OUR CLASSROOM EXPANSION PROGRAM, NEEDED DUE TO INCREASED ENROLLMENT AND GENDER SEPARATION FROM 6TH GRADE ONWARD. NO NEW FACILITIES WILL BE CONSTRUCTED AS WE SEEK OTHER ALTERNATIVES TO CONTINUE THE EXPANSION PROGRAM. d)LAND ACQUISITION - SLA IS ON LEASED PROPERTY THAT WILL EXPIRE IN 2022 WITH LITTLE CHANCE OF RENEWING THE LEASE AGREEMENT. IN ADDITION, THE CURRENT LOCATION IS NOT ADEQUATE FOR THE INCREASED ENROLLMENT OF 700 STUDENTS. LAND ACQUISITION, NEW CONSTRUCTION AND RELOCATION REMAINS THE TOP PRIORITY FOR 2019 AND BEYOND. THIS WILL ENABLE SLA TO FURTHER IMPROVE ITS QUALITY EDUCATIONAL SERVICES AND ENSURE SUSTAINABILITY FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. A SEARCH FOR LAND OR SUITABLE LEASED FACILITIES HAS BEEN ONGOING. EXPENSES FOR EDUCATION PROGRAMS INCLUDES DONATED SERVICES TOTALING $6,555. THIS INCLUDES PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FOR DATABASE AND SURVEY DEVELOPMENT AS WELL AS DONATED SERVICES OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc03) DEVELOPMENT (EMPOWERING COMMUNITIES) - THE RURAL VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (RVDP) WAS ESTABLISHED TO PROVIDE QUALITY EDUCATION TO REMOTE, ISOLATED COMMUNITIES IN NORTHERN PAKISTAN. ONE OF THE MOST OPPRESSED AND MARGINALIZED GROUPS ARE THE SEMI-NOMADIC GUJJARS. THEY ARE A POOR, ILLITERATE AND OPPRESSED PEOPLE THAT LIVE IN THE HIGH MOUNTAIN VALLEYS IN GILGIT-BALTISTAN. BECAUSE OF RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM, THE GUJJARS IN GILGIT-BALTISTAN HAD NOT BEEN EDUCATING GIRLS UNTIL RECENTLY. SINCE 2007, SHINGING LIGHT HAS BEEN PROVIDING SCHOOL EQUIPMENT & SUPPLIES, HIRING LOCAL TEACHERS AND PAYING FOR STUDENT SCHOOL FEES, BOOKS, AND UNIFORMS. IN 2019, SHINING LIGHT RAISED $21,000 TO EQUIP 4 REMOTE VILLAGE SCHOOLS, HIRE 23 LOCAL TEACHERS/STAFF AND ENABLE ENROLLMENT OF OVER 450 CHILDREN. OVER 100 GUJJAR GIRLS ARE NOW RECEIVING AN EDUCATION, AND THROUGH OUR ADULT LITERACY EFFORTS, ADULTS ARE LEARNING TO READ AND WRITE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THESE MOUNTAINOUS, REMOTE COMMUNITIES. a)GUJJAR ADULT LITERACY PROGRAM - SLI RAISED OVER $31,000 TO LAUNCH 6 ADULT LITERACY CENTERS IN 6 VILLAGES AND OFFERED 6-MONTH LITERACY PROGRAMS STARTING IN MAY, 2019. NUMEROUS IMPROVEMENTS WERE MADE TO THE LITERACY COURSE DESIGN TO HELP IMPROVE ATTENDANCE AND GRADUATION RATES. OF THE 150 INITIAL APPLICANTS, 99 GRADUATED WITH AN URDU LITERACY CERTIFICATE. THIS REPRESENTS A 66% GRADUATION RATE IN 2019 COMPARED WITH A 22% GRADUATION RATE IN 2018. OF THE 99 GRADUATES, 85 WERE WOMEN FROM 5 OF THE CENTERS. MODIFICATION AND CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT TO TRAINING AND COURSE CURRICULUM HAVE BEEN CRITICAL FOR THE SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM. SIX NEW ADULT LITERACY TEACHERS WERE TRAINED AND A NEW STAFF MEMBER HIRED IN 2019 WITH PLANS OF LAUNCHING 6 NEW CENTERS IN 2020. b)GUJJAR MOTHER TONGUE LITERACY PROJECT - IN 2016, SLI SUCCESSFULLY LAUNCHED A GUJJAR MOTHER TONGUGE LITERACY PILOT PROGRAM.

AFTER A SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH AND ENDORSEMENT BY THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION, A GUJJAR TRANSLATION TEAM WAS FORMED WITH LOCAL TEACHERS THAT HAVE BEEN TRAINED TO READ, WRITE AND DEVELOP MATERIALS SPECIFIC TO THE GUJJAR REGIONAL DIALECT. THESE TEACHERS COMPLETED A TEACHER'S MANUAL THAT IS ESSENTIAL FOR INSTRUCTION AND WAS PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED FOR USE IN THE GUJJAR COMMUNITIES.
