The initiative will begin in 100 government schools.
It will be expanded to additional schools in phases.
A website will be launched to facilitate school registration for the program.

Collaboration and Support

The Governor expressed his gratitude to MQM-P Chairman Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui and Saylani Welfare Trust Chairman Bashir Farooqui for their support. He also mentioned that the Governor’s House continues to launch new programs, including IT and security service training.

60% of Pakistan’s population is comprised of youth and children.
55 million children are currently enrolled in schools.
Bringing the 30 million out-of-school children into the educational system could greatly enhance the countrys educational landscape.

Ease their financial burdens.
Help reduce poverty.
Increase school attendance
