A former TDSB educator and recipient of the Prime Minister's Award for Teaching Excellence, Rahim spent over a decade watching students move through a system built for compliance rather than curiosity — one that measured seat time instead of mastery, and grades instead of growth. He knew there was a better way.

The conviction to build it crystallized in 2011, when he was training teachers at a refugee camp along the Kenyan/Somali border. On the wall of a makeshift library, he read the words that would define everything that came after: "Legacy is not what you leave for people — it's what you leave in people." Amani School was born from that belief. A place where every child's potential is treated not as something to be sorted and ranked, but as something to be ignited, nurtured, and set free.
