When a company takes the initiative to create powerful and moving campaign to spotlight some of our country's most talented and hard-working individuals, it just goes to show how much we can do with our time to make the most valuable and life changing efforts. This is exactly what Atlas Battery's Sparkistan campaign has done.
Atlas battery took the initiative to spotlight the story of 15 unsung heroes. These individuals shared their story and their struggle to achieve a goal to better Pakistan as a nation. Each hero had a unique and positively uplifting story to share.
Syed Fahad Ali from Karachi took education into his own hands and built the Aghaz School. The school offers free education to every child who simply can not afford it. He made the best of circumstances and brought education to children along with school supplies. While growing up, Fahad had to endure the struggles of studying in a government school and vowed to take matters into his own hands when he gets older. He did just that. 


Zymal Umer is Pakistan’s Youngest Social Entrepreneur. At 9 years old she founded the social project dubbed Zee Bags.
