Babar Suleman and Haris Suleman were raising money for the Indiana-based group Seeds of Learning, which supports the work of The Citizens Foundation in Pakistan. They had raised half their goal when their Beechcraft Bonanza A36 crashed into the Pacific 23 miles from the island. In an interview with CNN affiliate WISH TV in June, only days before the pair set off, Babar Suleman, also a pilot, spoke of the importance of the work done by the Pakistan charity. The money raised, he said, would help open schools “for underprivileged children who otherwise would not have a hope of getting an education and may even end up in the wrong hands.” http://us.cnn.com/2014/07/31/us/indiana-teen-pilot-killed-charity-money/index.html?sr=sharebar_facebook
