Lahore, SEPT 25 (DNA) – U.S. Ambassador Donald Blome and U.S. Consul General in Lahore Kristin Hawkins recently welcomed 150 new students in Sialkot to the U.S.-funded EnglishWorks! program. EnglishWorks! offers young people the opportunity to enhance English language, entrepreneurial, and leadership skills.
“These skills will help young Pakistanis become community leaders who contribute to a prosperous, proud, and peaceful future for Pakistan,” Ambassador Blome said.
The EnglishWorks! program symbolizes the enduring partnership between the United States and Pakistan. Since 2015, more than 6,000 Pakistani students have graduated from the program. The United States looks forward to expanding its educational initiatives across Pakistan.
During his visit to Lahore, Ambassador Blome also met with members of the Central Punjab Chapter of the Pakistan-U.S. Alumni Network. Alumni of U.S. exchanges play vital roles in business, education, government, and the non-profit sector, significantly contributing to their communities with the knowledge and connections they gained through their U.S.-funded programs and strengthening the U.S.-Pakistan relationship.
