[Program]

Mashallah great news.I heard his company plans to go public and get an IPO real soon.

[Calaf]

The Foundation has already unveiled a series of major education programmes: Daariz, a free, fun and easy-to-use app that helps people with low literacy skills to learn the Somali language; Books for Change, which provides one million low-priced books every year; and Resources for Schools, a suite of digital and print educational resources designed for schools and colleges. To support Somaliland's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, to date, Ismail Ahmed has donated $1 million worth of PPE and COVID-19 laboratory testing equipment and kit to strengthen the country's capacity and support healthcare workers across the country.

Great to see him investing back in his homeland, most when they see the West and money never looks back.

Mashallah this is the kind of true patriotism we need. May he help bring somaliland to the 21 century. Imagine a somali country being the top country on the continent.
