Founded by Zubair Hossain along with an expert advisors team, this organization grew from a simple but urgent belief:
"Sometimes the most powerful way to help is to listen."
The idea for The Listening Point began when I witnessed the silent battles many in our community were fighting — far from home, under academic and financial pressure, often without anyone they could truly open up to. Tragic events, including the loss of several students to suicide, made it painfully clear that something had to change.
I knew I couldn’t do this alone. Today, I work alongside a group of caring and committed advisors — people who share the same vision of a world where no one feels they have to face their darkest moments alone. These advisors bring diverse perspectives, life experience, and a deep commitment to empathy, kindness, and human connection.
