Brit-Pak Man Sells UK Assets to Build Schools in AJK

A British-Pakistani man donated all of his life savings to the construction of 35 new schools for kids in Azad Kashmir's earthquake-affected communities.

In the United Kingdom, Chaudhary Muhammad Aslam, a native of Mirpur, worked for over 50 years before working hard enough to own five houses.

Aslam was astonished to discover that several schools in Azad Kashmir were still in ruins more than 15 years after the deadly 2005 earthquake when he visited there in 2023.

In the area, more than 2,400 schools had been devastated by the earthquake. Without enough classrooms or basic amenities, Aslam observed children in isolated communities sitting on the ground, exposed to the elements, trying to learn.

Aslam made the decision to act after being deeply affected by the circumstance. He took the tough choice to sell all five of his homes after he got back to the UK. His entire donation, which totaled crores of rupees, went towards rebuilding schools in Azad Kashmir.

To ensure the monies were spent efficiently, Aslam teamed up with Muslim Charity, a humanitarian organization based in the UK.

With his help, 35 contemporary schools have been constructed in the districts of Bagh, Haveli, Pallandri, Rawalakot, and Muzaffarabad that were hit by the earthquake.

These schools provide thousands of kids with a secure and comfortable learning environment by having the right classrooms, furnishings, and other amenities. With the new structures in lieu of temporary shelters and outdoor classrooms, students may now concentrate on their studies in a more comfortable setting.
