Hello, my name is Hummayun Alexander, and I was born with a polio-affected right leg. I’ve faced many challenges growing up in Pakistan, but I’ve always believed in purpose, resilience, and helping others.

I hold a Bachelor's in Business Administration (BBA) and worked for around 2 years at Telenor, one of the largest telecom companies in Pakistan. I’ve also co-founded a daycare center to support working families in my community.

Now, I’ve applied to a 2-year Disability Support diploma program in Canada — a field close to my heart. This program will equip me to professionally support people with disabilities and advocate for more inclusive communities.

My wife, a skilled Early Childhood Educator (ECE), will accompany me and help with living costs through a work permit — but we still need help with:

Tuition
Visa and travel fees
English exam
Initial settlement costs
I scored 81/120 on my TOEFL, and I’m fully committed to this journey.

Your support can help me uplift not just myself, but also create a ripple effect for people with disabilities back home in Pakistan.

Every small donation brings me closer to this opportunity to grow, learn, and make a difference.

Thank you for believing in my journey.
