This video "Amai in Shanty towns of Islamabad" is about
Funkor Childart Center's Project of organising art and book reading workshops in the shanty towns of Islamabad.
Through Art and book reading workshops, Funkor organised distribution of note books with messages about environment protection and Hygiene promotion. Through mural painting the children after receiving the note books, expressed that "Trees are our friends", "We love Pakistan", "Plant more trees", " We love animals and trees", " Be kind to animals and trees". Funkor also held 'Recycling workshops', Book reading sessions, distribution of 'Sadako's Prayer' and mural painting and drawing. After reading 'Sadako's Prayer' children painted murals depcting messages of 'No more Hiroshima's!' and Sadako's Peace Memorial. These murals are dedicated to the victims of devastating Tsunami in Japan. I this some children express their views some of them are: We have learnt that we should always love each other. Amai turns into a shooting stars and takes children around the world. I liked Amai in this book. Amai is made of light Amai is a bird and she spreads lights among children Amai spreads light and takes children on exciting adventures Church Schools Visited.

  • So pleased to see your great work. Look forward to seeing hero stories, art and movies from the children of Pakistan on MY HERO this year with your help.You are an inspiration to all who love peace. Your art and ability to engage young people with ART is magical. THANK YOU.

  • It is amazing how Fauzia (one of my heroes!) continues to make such beautiful things happen in Pakistan to share with the world. I think there should be a NOBEL PRIZE for the art form of video making that documents the amazing things people do, and that Fauzia (and her sister and other family artivists) would be right up there winning all the prizes! It is also amazing that she and I share the same birthday (I am the elder of course!) BEAUTIFUL WORK...BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE...love and peace
