Through the 80/20 Community Sweat Equity Drive, we mandate schools to make a non-monetary contribution of 80 % towards the construction process and we make up for the difference by providing materials that schools cannot afford including cement, paint, and backboards.

Facing History and Ourselves uses lessons of history to challenge teachers and their students to stand up to bigotry and hate. At Facing History and Ourselves, we believe the bigotry and hate that we witness today are the legacy of brutal injustices of the past. Facing our collective history and how it informs our attitudes and behaviors allows us to choose a world of equity and justice. Facing History’s resources address racism, antisemitism, and prejudice at pivotal moments in history; we help students connect choices made in the past to those they will confront in their own lives. Through our partnership with educators around the world, Facing History and Ourselves reaches millions of students in thousands of classrooms every year. Independent research studies show that experience in a Facing History classroom motivates students to become upstanders in their communities, whether by challenging negative stereotypes at the dinner table, standing up to a bully in their neighborhood, or registering to vote when they are eligible. Together we are creating the next generation of leaders who will build a world based on knowledge and compassion, the foundation for more democratic, equitable, and just societies.

Title: Free School Education for the Poorest Children in Village Areas: A Mission of Hope and Change Introduction In many villages across Pakistan, countless children wake up every morning to face a life burdened by poverty, hunger, and hopelessness. These children, despite having dreams and potential, are often denied the basic right to education. Education, which should be the foundation of their future, becomes an unreachable goal due to financial constraints, lack of resources, and the absence of support systems. Recognizing this critical need, we have launched a revolutionary initiative: a Free School System for the Poorest Children in Village Areas. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to provide completely free education-from basic needs to academic growth-for children who otherwise would never get the chance to step inside a classroom. This includes not just books and uniforms, but also food, emotional support, and life skills. We believe that no child should be left behind because of poverty. Chapter 1: The Harsh Reality in Rural Pakistan In rural areas of Pakistan, families often survive on daily wages, if at all. Children are either forced to work in fields, beg on streets, or stay at home caring for siblings while their parents work. For many of these families, education is considered a luxury they cannot afford. Schools may be too far, lack basic infrastructure, or demand fees and supplies the parents simply can't manage. In some villages, there are no schools at all. In others, the schools that exist may be under-resourced, with untrained teachers and crumbling buildings. Many students drop out due to financial pressure or because the family doesn't see immediate benefits from education. The result? A continuous cycle of poverty that passes from generation to generation. Chapter 2: The Vision of Free Education Our vision is to break this cycle by offering 100% free schooling to the most disadvantaged children. We don't just open classrooms; we open doors to a new life. Our schools are places where children can learn, grow, and discover their purpose. Every student enrolled receives: Free Admission: No child is turned away due to inability to pay. Free Books and Stationery: Ensuring every child has the tools they need to succeed. Free School Bags and Uniforms: Creating a sense of equality and dignity. Free Daily Meals: Providing nutrition so that hunger never stands in the way of learning. Free Primary and Secondary Education: Building a strong academic foundation. But our work doesn't end there. We plan to accompany our students through every stage of growth. Chapter 3: Moving Beyond School - Vocational Training Once students complete their secondary education, they are enrolled in vocational training programs tailored to their interests and the needs of the job market. Our goal is to prepare them for real-world opportunities that can support their families and uplift their communities. Training programs include: Tailoring and Stitching Computer and IT Skills Spoken English Beauty and Wellness Training for Girls Social Media and Digital Marketing Entrepreneurship and Career Counseling We provide these trainings free of cost, often with stipends and materials included, so our students can focus on learning. Many graduates go on to find jobs, start small businesses, or even return to help teach the next generation. Chapter 4: The Dream of a College Our long-term goal is to establish a Free College where deserving students can pursue higher education without worrying about finances. By doing this, we aim to create future doctors, teachers, engineers, social workers, and leaders who will bring change not just in their families, but in society at large. We envision our students becoming the voice of progress in their villages. Running a completely free school system is not easy. Our challenges include: Financial Struggles: We rely entirely on donations. Without consistent support, expansion becomes difficult. Lack of Infrastructure: Many of our schools are in rented or semi-constructed buildings. Shortage of Teachers and Staff: Volunteers help, but we need trained, full-time educators. Transportation Issues: Many children walk long distances to school. Despite these obstacles, our passion never fades. Every challenge only deepens our faith and strengthens our resolve. We dream of a Pakistan where no child is deprived of education. Where schools are full, not empty. Where every village has a safe space for learning. Our vision includes: Building Schools Across Pakistan Creating Online Learning Platforms for Remote Areas Establishing Mobile Schools for Nomadic Communities Training Teachers from Within Villages Launching Free Colleges and Universities We are committed to this mission until every child has a future full of hope.
