Hi! My name is Seif Zubeir, but most people know me as Mr. Alright—a nickname I earned when I first started learning English because I often ended my sentences with the word “Alright.” It stuck with me, and now it has become part of my identity! I have a background in Environmental Health Sciences, but my true passion lies in helping communities and creating opportunities for those in need. I strongly believe in the power of education, collaboration, and social impact, which is why I and the directors' team founded the organization—a nonprofit dedicated to empowering marginalized children and youth in Zanzibar through education and community development. I love working with people from different backgrounds and cultures, as I believe that real change happens when we come together. Through volunteering, partnerships, and teamwork, I strive to make a lasting impact and create a better future for those who need it most. Let’s rise together and make a difference!
