Also at the core of this training partnership with the CSUF Social Work Department is not only to help develop good clinicians but to continue to inspire social workers to see themselves as much more than just clinicians. They are change agents that if given the opportunity should want to advocate for the most vulnerable in our community. We are an agency that adheres to evidence-based practices but we also believe in the power of potential and the importance to instill seeds of resiliency in all of our clients.

Surviving cancer and using art as a tool for healing, reflection and understanding has infused my art with a sense of energy and optimism that has a universal appeal. The process of making the art as well as the meaning of it, are both an integral part of the end result and for me there is always a battle to harmonize between the two – to evoke the emotion of the piece and to empower the viewer.
I love combining traditional and new media painting techniques where one feeds off the energy of the other. The visual collaboration of both medias often celebrates a bold expressionism and optimistic edge regardless of subject matter.
My work has evolved from a mashing of referenced pop art and iconic imagery into elaborate multilayered portraits and scenes that depict a more personal interpretation of my life experience, battles and passions. My goal is to lead the observer to dramatic action, putting them on the edge between what we know and what is unknowable. I’ve learned that something new will always come about when you push hard enough and the result is the revelation of a “new identity”.
The motivation for me to keep going is to gain an understanding of how this “new identity or rebirth or truth” actually reflects my life as well as the world we live in – or not.

AWQAF and the Minor Affairs Foundation and GROHE sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to fit GROHE’s sustainable fittings in the UAE’s first eco-friendly mosque.
The MoU is part of the regional implementation of GROHE’s water sustainability project – ‘the GROHE Green Mosque initiative.’
The ‘Khalifa Al Tajer Mosque’ apart from being eco-friendly, will also be the largest mosque in Dubai. The mosque will be built to accommodate 3,500 worshippers and constructed over an area of 105,000 square feet. The mosque is expected to be completed in 2014.
The mosque is said to feature solar panels and the recycling and purifying of ablution water for irrigation and washroom supply.
Tayeb Al Rais, Secretary-General at AMAF said, “With GROHE’s sustainable technology we are looking forward to reducing the amount of excess water consumption that many mosques experience. GROHE’s fittings will enable the mosque to make considerable water savings to the benefit of both the mosque and the environment, and we look forward to its completion.”

Women Rewarded Solar Lights for Adult Literacy
Solar Lantern Distribution To Adult Women PEP TANDOALLAHYAR Oct12th, 2017
Pakistan has one of the lowest literacy rates in the world. The general understanding of literacy in Pakistan is the ability to read and write and unluckily, millions of people in Pakistan are dispossessed of even this. The situation seems even worse when we look into the urban-rural divide. In rural Sindh, women are most deprived of education due to cultural customs which has created gender inequality and has deprived women to have a voice in the society. Through Adult Literacy Education, Primary Education project PEP is on to change that.
Female Adult Literacy program was initiated in 2016. At present PEP is running 26 Female Adult Literacy (FAL) Centers with 316 Female Adult Literacy members (Adult Students) in different areas of rural Sindh as follows,

There are 6 area officers and 1 WEP coordinator for the implementing and monitoring of the adult literacy program.
As a gesture of appreciation Pervaiz Lodhie President and founder LEDtronics Inc. offered a special gift of a Solar Powered LED Solar Light to the 316 student and 7 program officers.
Funding for the solar lights was provided by one of gentleman from USA. His name is not mentioned here on his advice.
First distribution ceremony was held on Thursday October 12, 2017 in Shaleemabad, Achaar Khaskeli & Shanti Nagar ALCs located in Tando Allahyar districts.
Lt. Gen (Retd.) Syed Perwaiz Shahid a renowned educationist was chief guest for the event.
Ms. Lillian Charles Program Manager PEP and other team members from PEP were present in the event.

hildren in class at the Danzhou Shi Yan Primary school, Danzhou City, Hainan Island, China, 25th April 2007. Danzhou city has the highest gender inbalance in China with 170 males born for every 100 females according to figures from Chinese Government 5t National Census. The inbalance is already having a massive social impact on society and is expected to get worse while the ruthless One Child Policy, aimed at curbing China's 1.3 billion population, continues to be law.
