Malakand, October 11, 2024 – In a prestigious and heartfelt ceremony held at the University of Malakand, Ammad Ali, the CEO and Founder of RankingGrow, was honored with the Pride of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Award for his outstanding contributions to youth empowerment, digital education, and community development.

The award was presented by Humayun Khan, Honorable Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, in the presence of dignitaries, educators, students, and youth leaders from across the province. The event, a collaborative initiative between the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the Directorate of Youth Affairs, recognized top individuals whose work has created a measurable and lasting impact on society.

Ammad Ali was selected for his exceptional commitment to educating underprivileged youth — completely free of cost — in digital skills such as freelancing, digital marketing, e-commerce, and AI. Through his platform, RankingGrow, he has trained over 10,000 students from marginalized communities across the province, helping them find economic independence and digital career opportunities in a global market.

Speaking at the ceremony, Humayun Khan said, “Ammad Ali is a beacon of hope for our youth. His vision and work are not just transforming individual lives, but building a stronger, more self-reliant Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.”

Hailing from Haripur, Ammad's journey from a small-town entrepreneur to a national youth icon has been driven by his belief that every young person, regardless of their background, deserves access to opportunities and modern skills. His free training camps in areas like Malakand, Swat, Mansehra, and Haripur have empowered thousands who would otherwise be left behind in the digital revolution.

In his acceptance speech, Ammad Ali said, “This award is a reminder that our mission is far from over. I dedicate this to the youth of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa — to their resilience, potential, and dreams. I will continue working to make digital skills accessible for every child in our province.”

Ammad’s work has been featured in national media and recognized by several institutions, but the Pride of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Award stands as one of his highest honors — acknowledging not just his success, but his deep impact on the future of Pakistan’s digital landscape.
