From classrooms to clinics, from vocational workshops to disaster relief — here is how Iftikhar Welfare Foundation serves communities across Lahore and Faisalabad, in detail.
We believe every child deserves a real chance to learn, regardless of what their family can afford. Our education program establishes and supports schools, colleges, and community libraries so that underprivileged children in Lahore and Faisalabad don't fall through the cracks simply because of lack of resources.
Good health shouldn't depend on income. We run free medical camps and support dispensaries and maternity care so that families who would otherwise go untreated can access basic medical attention close to home.
Skills lead to independence. Our vocational institutes teach women handicrafts, sewing, embroidery, beautician work and cooking — and we go a step further, offering financial and technical support so trainees can start their own income source once trained.
Justice should not depend on the ability to pay for it. We provide free legal aid to innocent prisoners and to poor, needy individuals who cannot afford the cost of litigation, working to safeguard their basic legal rights.
Marriage can carry a heavy financial burden for orphaned and needy families. We help ease that load by providing dowry items and other essential household articles for the marriages of orphans and needy men and women alike.
Children of kiln workers and out-of-school working children rarely get a chance at formal education. We provide free skills education for these children, aiming to open doors that would otherwise stay closed.
When flood, famine, or other calamity strikes, the need is immediate. We establish relief centers to provide food, clothing, and basic amenities of life to those in distress — as quickly and as far as our resources allow.
Learning doesn't stop at childhood. We run adult education centers and computer study centers that build digital literacy and practical skills, helping adults in our communities keep pace with a changing world.
Whether you'd like to fund a specific program, volunteer your time, or simply learn more — we'd love to hear from you.
