President joins national ‘Build a School’ campaign
Speaking at a ceremony honoring school benefactors in the central city of Isfahan, Pezeshkian said that national development hinges on raising a capable and committed generation, a goal that depends on the joint efforts of people and authorities, Tasnim reported.
The president announced that he has personally joined the campaign and urged senior officials attending the event to do the same by contributing financially. “I ask all officials present to take part in this campaign and deposit 50 million rials (about $45) each month from their personal income into this fund,” Pezeshkian said. Turning to his executive deputy, Mohammad Jafar Qaempanah, he added, “Transfer one month of my salary to this account.”
Pezeshkian stressed that education is the foundation of national development and that investing in schools means investing in the country’s future. He called on both the public and private sectors, as well as philanthropists, to expand their participation in school construction projects across Iran.
“The future of Iran belongs to the children we educate today,” he said, urging “everyone, from ordinary citizens to senior officials, to take part in building that future.”
