This Ramadan, help The Citizens Foundation take more children off the streets of Pakistan and put them into remarkable schools providing a quality education.
All Zakat and Sadaqat donations are accepted. TCF account for Zakat and Sadaqat donations separately from general donations received.
We are edging closer to this year's target - with just 10 days left, we encourage you to inform your friends and family about FTCF's Ramadan Appeal and supporting our cause today!
Please give generously and open the doors of opportunity, ambition and success to hundreds of children.
Make a child’s dreams come true this Ramadan...
Thanking you,
Friends of The Citizens Foundation
Nine-year-old Nawaz is older than his class friends. But he doesn’t mind. He’s just happy to be learning again.
Nawaz’s mother passed away when he was very young, leaving him neglected in a large family desperately trying to fend for themselves. Then, after the 2005 Earthquake, things got much worse. Losing his home and school, Nawaz was forced to live a nomad’s life – desperately trying to survive on a rubbish dump.
That was until he was found by the Campus of Hope, a TCF school in Mansehra.
The school’s Principal, Shakila Waris, is dedicated to taking in street children. So when the TCF school bus passed Nawaz, vulnerable at the dump, the driver knew that if he brought the young boy to Shakila, she could help change his life forever.
Nawaz is now in Grade II at the Campus of Hope. He is surrounded today by loving teachers and the bright light of hope – a feature of every TCF School. With his new education, he has no desire to grow up to be a truck driver - his family profession. Instead, he wants to study and become a teacher to help children just like him.
