Fund-raiser for the girl Rital

This is 5-year-old Rital from a Nubian village near Aswan in Upper Egypt - an intelligent, gifted girl who already knows some English and wants to become a doctor one day. Rital is now at the age where she is supposed to be enrolled in pre-school, which is the prerequisite for later school attendance in Egypt. The state preschools in the villages are overcrowded with poorly qualified teachers and more than 50 pupils for whom no one really cares. Those who can afford it send their child to the bilingual (English-Arabic) Nile Egyptian School in New Aswan, where they receive individual support and a good foundation for their future careers.

Unfortunately, her mother Hager, whom AdmaCUM helped to study law over 10 years ago, does not have the necessary financial means to do so, as her husband has left her and does not provide her with any financial support. With the little that Hager earns as a working woman - a rarity in an Egyptian village - she provides for herself, her daughter and her old, sick mother.

Hager is a strong Egyptian woman who stands up against the injustice that often befalls women in Egyptian villages at the hands of their husbands. Her heart's desire is for Rital to receive the same education as she did, so that one day she can become a confident young woman who can realise her dream of becoming a doctor and help the women of Egypt.
