To make the whole concept attractive and child friendly, the society requested the Pakistan Road Transport Board to donate a Double Decker bus in which a library could be set up. Books were donated and soon afterwards the first Book Bus Library became functional. The idea proved to be a roaring success. Consequently to ensure provision of maximum benefit to the most vulnerable focus was placed on children enrolled in Government schools, whereas to widen the ambit of work the number of libraries was increased over time. Of these, the first set up in the double decker bus is a Stationed Bus Library, the second a Reference Library set up in a building, and the 2 Mobile Libraries and 3 rickshaw libraries for facilitating those children who cannot visit either of the above. From the time of its registration under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 in January 1979 till date, Alif Laila has focused on bringing books and children closer through setting up libraries small and big, in communities and in schools as well as its mobile library program. However, at the same time the organization has added interventions its portfolio that are congruent to its overall mission and vision. We focus on 6 main areas: 1) Access to quality children books; 2) Hands on learning 3) Teacher development; 4) Youth and women empowerment; 5) Public-private partnership; 6) Advocacy and 7) Development of ECE materials and children's books Scope of Work 1.

In Lahore the unique library complex hosts Pakistan's pioneer children library and first mobile library. The mobile library program consists of 2 custom made small vehicles and a rickshaw. These mobile libraries serve low income communities as well as government schools. Rickshaw library is used for narrow streets.

Mission & Purpose: Eduplex was born from a vision of hope and empowerment. Mr. Nelson Mandela, profoundly stated: "What you are doing here is changing tragedy into triumph." These words still reflect the heart of our mission: to empower deaf children to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally within a mainstream educational has a ripple effect that extends beyond the classroom - it transforms entire families and communities, not only changing the life of each deaf child but also affecting their families' lives. We align closely with the World Bank's goals of helping countries improve education programs. Our approach includes: We established the Eduplex Training Institute (ETI) as an online, blended learning, and practical workshop training center EDUPLEX is also a training hub, sharing their expertise in inclusion, and the optimal use of technology in education, with professionals worldwide. Teacher training through the Eduplex Training Institute (ETI) The Online "How to be a Better Teacher" training programmes have been awarded several government contracts to train teachers in how to be a better teacher Expanding access to inclusive education for deaf boys and girls By 2050 Africa will house the larges young population in the world with one third of the global youth residing in sub-Sahar Africa. At Eduplex, we believe education is the bridge between despair and hope. We see every child - deaf or hearing - as a potential leader, innovator, and contributor to a better tomorrow. Our mission is to equip them not only with knowledge, but with confidence, dignity, and faith in their God-given potential Eduplex is a mainstream, parallel-medium school and serves as a model for inclusive education internationally. The current enrolment is 810 children, of whom 70 are deaf. As the school receives no government funding, 40 of these deaf learners are supported entirely by private donors. The Eduplex Model: How deaf children learn to talk and thrive: A common question is, "How is it possible for deaf children to talk?" Our success is built on a rigorous, proven methodology that empowers deaf children to learn and communicate through spoken language. This is achieved through a dedicated process that includes: Early Identification of hearing loss. Fitting of Appropriate Amplification (advanced digital hearing aids or cochlear implants). Intensive Parent Guidance & Professional Support to create a language-rich environment. Maximum Use of Technology to ensure optimal auditory access. Full Inclusive Education in a mainstream setting, providing nothing but normal, natural language exposure alongside their hearing peers. This holistic approach ensures that deaf children at Eduplex do not just learn-they thrive academically, socially, and spiritually, becoming confident, articulate individuals. The Eduplex Training Institute (ETI): Founded in 2014, the Eduplex Training Institute (ETI) is the strategic arm dedicated to scaling our inclusive education model beyond our school gates. ETI translates over two decades of practical, in-classroom experience into comprehensive professional development for educators, therapists, and school leaders. We offer a suite of SACE-accredited online and on-site courses, practical workshops, and whole-school training programs. Our training is not theoretical; it is built on the lived success of the Eduplex school, providing educators with immediately applicable strategies for creating inclusive, effective, and faith-based learning environments. By equipping education professionals, ETI acts as a powerful multiplier effect, ensuring that thousands more children-with and without disabilities-can benefit from the Eduplex methodology. Eduplex stands as a living testament to the transformative power of faith, innovation, and compassion. Born from a God-given vision, it has grown into a global model for Christian-inclusive education-systematically turning the tragedy of hearing loss into a triumph of opportunity, dignity, and hope.

At the heart of our Foundation lies a profound commitment to integrating lifelong learning into the very fabric of our social culture. Our mission transcends conventional educational paradigms, as we believe that learning is not confined to the walls of a classroom or limited by age. Instead, we aspire to cultivate a community where the pursuit of knowledge is a lifelong journey, woven seamlessly into the everyday lives of individuals. Central to our ethos is the promotion of collective leadership within the local community, fostering a sense of shared responsibility and collaboration in shaping the educational landscape. We envision an environment where students and teachers alike are empowered to engage in continuous growth and development, where curiosity is celebrated and learning is a collective endeavour. Through our dedication to nurturing this inspiring environment, we strive to create a vibrant ecosystem where every member has the opportunity to thrive and contribute meaningfully to the ongoing evolution of our educational ecosystem.

Our mission is to promote and provide high-quality, holistic education to the underprivileged young people of Sierra Leone. We believe that the education of young women and men is essential to: unlock human potential, overcome poverty, improve wellbeing, build democracy, and that it is the cornerstone of stable development. For the last 25 years EducAid has been working to restore and strengthen education during and in the aftermath of Sierra Leone's civil war (1991-2002). During the conflict, education was an early casualty with many teachers fleeing the country and thousands of children being denied access to education. The country is still struggling to rebuild schools, train teachers and reach vulnerable girls and boys who are yet to see the inside of a classroom. We believe in the power of education to eliminate poverty and the challenges standing in the way of a democratic, dignified and globally-engaged Sierra Leone. EducAid provides free, high quality education to some of the most vulnerable and underprivileged children in Sierra Leone. EducAid operates 7 free schools, serving 1,200 children (1 Primary, 4 Junior Secondary and 2 Senior Secondary). The effectiveness of EducAid's innovative, student-centred approach to education is demonstrated by the fact that, despite many of our students coming from turbulent backgrounds, they regularly achieve 85% pass rates in all national exams. EducAid also trains teachers at over 100 partner schools as part of our Quality Enhancement Programme (QEP) working closely with communities and local education officials to raise the standard of education for children across the Port Loko district and beyond. Furthermore, EducAid run a tertiary-level degree course with the University of Makeni. EducAid's success stems from its grassroots and Sierra Leonean-driven approach. Of our 120 staff, only 3 are UK based with only 3 expats in Sierra Leone. Most EducAid staff are former students, knowing first hand the vulnerability faced by children in Sierra Leone and the power of education to change this, they inform our work each day. EducAid has spent decades developing relationships and earning the trust of communities by working alongside them. This is evidenced by communities giving EducAid land for schools, attending school meetings, community elders working with EducAid to keep girls in school, and EducAid's work as a trusted, stable presence during Ebola. EducAid was one of the few organisations that stayed on the ground, converting schools to care centres and delivering remote learning via radio broadcasts and moped-delivered USB sticks. EducAid also opened doors to children, many of whom are girls, who had lost their families to Ebola, and more recently to the devastating mudslides. EducAid's programs and innovations work because they come from the staff, students and communities they serve.

The mission of OBLF is to bring basic English comprehension and Computer skills to children attending the mass schooling system in India, to provide them an equal opportunity to gain meaningful employment on reaching adulthood. The foundation works as a partner to the state government and adopts state run/public elementary schools in India. In a country with a billion plus population about 70% of 200 million children who are in elementary schools attend public schools. Reports have told us year on year about the massive learning deficit in the public schooling system. Some of the issues this system is plagued with are poor content, teacher absenteeism, learning by rote and very poor teacher ratios. The foundation uses the existing infrastructure of public schools mainly in remote rural areas. The children in the adopted schools are divided into levels/groups based on their English skills (and not according to age). The foundation has designed its own child friendly syllabi for each level and uses laptops and tablets (technologies these children have never been exposed to) and other fun filled teaching techniques to teach. The foundation's strategy is to train and employ semi-educated rural women on a part time basis (this doesn't disturb the rural ethos) to teach in the adopted schools. These women whom we call coordinators are mainly homemakers and live in the rural communities where the adopted schools are. Every adopted school has several children divided into three levels (Junior, Middle and Senior), a few coordinators to do the teaching and urban volunteers who take ownership of the school and mentor the coordinators and supervise the work being done in the school. Children undergo baseline assessments at the beginning of the school year and then another assessment at the end of an academic year. We also assess a small number of children who attend the schools but are not in the foundation's School Adoption Program. Children who are in the program have consistently performed way better than the ones in the control group.
