Ali & Soli Journey: From a Kid with a Camera to a Builder of Dreams

Hi, my name is Ali, I’m 8 years old, and I love taking pictures of nature and landscapes.

A year ago, I started planning this project after spending time beside my dad, watching him work in web development, hosting, and graphic design beside that, he is a great pharmacist, he spent too much time to keep us living well. I was so inspired that I wanted to build something real—something that helps me and my family.

Even when I made a fatal mistake once that shut down my dad’s server with all the clients, he smiled and said he was proud because at least I was trying to learn—something most kids my age might not even think about.

That moment taught me: mistakes are part of building something great.

My mother also inspires me. She works as a charity manager, and I’ve gone with her many times to the organization. I saw how she helped poor kids, arranged surgeries for people who couldn’t afford them, cared for the elderly, and made sure children had clothes and supplies before school started. Watching her made me think:

Why not build an application that makes it easy for people to donate their extra things to kids like me?

Because I noticed so many people want to give, but they don’t always know where or how.

So I began selling my photos for $3 each, half set for $30 or the full set for $50, not just as pictures, but as seeds for my dreams:

• To save for my own future education (I dream of Harvard or Cambridge one day).

• To support my little brother Soli, so he can also reach a great university, even if he chooses a different path.

• And to fund the donation app, so I can help kids who don’t have what they need.

I also love the color blue 💙—the sky and the sea. It makes me feel calm, free, and full of dreams as big as the horizon.

 Where Your Support Goes (Milestones of My Dream)

Every single photo you buy pushes me one step forward. Here’s how:

• Year 1 (Now, Age 8–9): I will create three educational books for kids (coloring, puzzles, and mazes), launch a one-year photo printing service, and design the donation app that will let people give their extra clothes, toys, or goods to poor kids through charities.

• Year 2 (Age 9–10): I will launch the donation app in real life, working with charities to help families in need. I’ll also release updated editions of the kids’ books, both in print and digital form.

• After That: The books will keep growing, the photo printing will stay as a special edition service, and the donation app will become the main project, spreading city by city to help as many children as possible.

My dream is not only to study and grow, but also to become a worldwide influencer—not for fame, but to inspire other kids to learn, build, and create amazing things. Because I believe our world needs more kid creators, not just entertainers.

Every small purchase of my photos is not just a photo—it’s a piece of my journey. Together, you and I are writing a story of learning, building, and helping.

Last thing, forgive me if the pictures not so professional, i'm still learning to hold the camera, chose the angle and light exposure.

I Promise you that my next pictures will be more beautiful and heartful.

Thank you for being part of my dream ❤️
