Abstract:

The former owner of one of the nation’s largest Oriental rug distributorships proves success is measured in more than revenue. Proceeds from Zaki Khalifa’s business donated to Akhuwat will partly fulfill his mission: to help Pakistani children have a better quality life. The other part of his mission involves a new career path: teaching Pakistani children at Akhuwat schools.
