Introducing Our Ace: Hadia Waheed!

04-hadia

Hadia is a deaf student from the Deaf Reach Lahore Campus. Being an aspiring young golfer and budding artist, she has won a number of awards for her excellence in extracurriculars. Despite only being 14 years old, Hadia has won an award for her performance in 3rd Junior Girls Golf Match, a certificate for her creative skills in the 13th Art Beat Competition, and another certificate for her artistic talent in the Mega Art Event in Trust School Lahore!

Hadia wants to grow up to be an artist. She works hard every day at Deaf Reach to fulfill this dream. Her next goal is to study well to go to National College of Arts – one of the most prestigious art schools in the country.

Whichever university she goes to, she wants to be an advocate for change and show her peers that deafness isn’t disabling – it’s just another way of communication and they can do it too!
