Pic story: Lady Didi and her charitable school in Egypt

Lady Didi (C) teaches children Arabic at her Nile River School in Ayyat district on the outskirts of Giza Province, about 100 km south of Cairo, capital of Egypt, on March 26, 2017. Diana Sandor, known as Didi, an old Hungarian-born German-raised woman, covered the long distance from West to East six years ago to open her Nile River School as a charitable kindergarten and educational center at the heart of remote, impoverished Baharwa village of Ayyat district on the outskirts of Giza Province, about 100 km south of the Egyptian capital Cairo. Didi said she started building the center "brick by brick," through little donations from friends and volunteers around the world and that she is concerned with "teaching children life," not just languages and skills.
