This isn’t a startup pitch, just a simple, meaningful project.

I’m helping build a classroom in a remote village in southern Tajikistan, where kids as young as 6 walk 3–5 km every day just to reach school. No NGO, no big team — just a few of us trying to make it happen.

We’re aiming to raise $8,000 to construct a single-room classroom right in their village — with basic furniture, a roof, and safe access.

This is my first time doing anything like this. If anyone has experience with fundraising, storytelling, or just how to gain visibility without spamming, I’d be really grateful for advice or signal boosts.

Thanks for reading.

So, what phone model do you currently use and why? What was your previous model? If you plan to upgrade, what should be your next phone?

For me, I was using an S20+ then I switched to an iPhone XS Max (just to try the Apple experience). My next phone is a blur, moving target but probably will try to experience either the Z Fold 5 or wait for the Pixel 8 Pro.
