Imagine a world where every child, regardless of their background, has the opportunity to unlock their full potential through education. That's the vision driving our fundraiser, a mission deeply intertwined with the tireless efforts of The Citizens Foundation (TCF) in Pakistan. For too long, the education crisis in Pakistan has cast a long shadow, denying countless children the fundamental right to learn and grow. We're here to change that narrative. Your generous donations will directly fuel TCF's remarkable work, building and sustaining schools in underserved communities, providing quality education, and empowering young minds to break the cycle of poverty. Personally, this cause resonates deeply because I believe education is the most powerful tool for social change. Seeing the transformative impact TCF has on children's lives – offering them not just classrooms, but hope and a future – ignited a passion within me to contribute. Every rupee donated translates into a brighter future, one where children are equipped to become leaders, innovators, and changemakers within their own communities. Join us in building these foundations of knowledge, and together, we can empower a generation to rise above adversity and shape a more equitable and prosperous world.

what is TCF?

The Citizens Foundation (TCF) is a platform for positive change aiming to address

Pakistan's learning crisis. It was founded as a non-profit organisation in 1995 by a group of

friends, with a vision to drive positive change through quality education. Today, with

301,000 students enrolled in 2,033 school units led by its 14,700 female faculty members,

TCF is recognised by The Economist as 'perhaps the largest network of independently run

schools in the world.'

Beyond developing 21st-century skills through its innovative education model, TCF also

enables its alumni to access higher education opportunities and collaborates with the

State to improve outcomes in the public sector. The organisation seeks to uplift

communities by empowering them with literacy, life skills and vocational competencies,

particularly focusing on women. By sharing with other stakeholders, the programmes,

experience and capabilities it has developed over the last 30 years, TCF aims to improve

outcomes across Pakistan's education landscape
