Education plays a vital role in not only personal development but also development as a whole. It is one of the most important issue that Pakistan is facing today with 24 million children out of school, making us the 2nd Largest population of ‘Out of School’ Children in the World, TCF wants to expand its role from currently catering to 204,000 Students with 1,441 schools all around Pakistan to provide subsidized education to 1.5 million children.
TCF schools are located in the heart of underdeveloped areas as 1/3rd of out of school children do not attend either because education is too expensive or the schools located are too far. TCF provides subsidized education for under Rs.50/ month for one child. This, along with the Alumni Development Programme of TCF, which provides support in the form of university test preparation and funds, has helped some of its student like Iqra Saleem from Ibrahim Goth to secure admission in LUMS and Asad Sajid from TCF School Landi to secure admission in IBA.
The students of IBA are working for The Citizens Foundation (TCF) as their Ambassador for Baghbaan Programme. To play an even bigger role in society with our work, they need our support. Despite all the work of TCF, it is still not a household name. It is our duty to spread the word and to acknowledge this outstanding initiative.
