When I established the Friends of Zainab in the school accounts it was something that
any principal could have done. But no one had thought of that. I thought, how can I help
this girl stay at school? I know what I’ll do. I’ll set up a trust fund in the school accounts
and I’ll get money into the account and we can pay her the special benefit she’s not going
to get by remaining at school full time. That’s exactly what I did. And it’s worked. It’s been
remarkably successful and it’s now expanded to almost a national level. It has gone quite
viral in the sense that a lot of young people have been helped.
