Dr. Zainab Balogun
As I celebrate my 60th birthday and reflect on 35 years in education and advocacy, my heart is filled with gratitude. This journey has been one of passion, challenges, and immense rewards.
To every girl who dared to dream, every parent who chose education, every colleague who shared this vision – thank you. Your courage and trust have been my driving force.
Looking back, I’m proud of what we’ve achieved at Bazarab Educational Foundation and beyond. Yet, our work is far from over. The fight for girls’ education and rights continues, and I’m more committed than ever.
As I enter this new chapter, I’m excited about the possibilities ahead. Education remains our most powerful tool for change, and I invite you all to join me in this ongoing mission.
To my family, thank you for your unwavering support. To my mentors and those I’ve had the privilege to mentor – you’ve enriched my life beyond measure.
Here’s to the power of education, the strength of our girls, and the bright future we’re building together. The best is yet to come!
With love and determination,
