About CARE
CARE Foundation is a welfare trust founded in Pakistan in 1988 by Ms. Seema Aziz. CARE is on a mission to provide quality marketable education to the underprivileged children of Pakistan, so as to empower them to build a happier, more prosperous nation.
CARE Foundation came into being in 1988 when a group of concerned citizens came together to rehabilitate flood victims in Sheikhupura district, Pakistan. While helping them rebuild their mud homes that had collapsed in the flood, CARE realized that there was no school in the area. CARE then decided that the best way to help the affected people would be to build a school, as it’s only through education that they can stand on their own feet and help themselves in the future.
In 1990, CARE built its first school to provide education to the children of the area. CARE also established a dispensary to offer affordable primary health care and an industrial home to provide income-generating opportunities to the women of the area.
Currently, CARE is educating 300,000 children in 888 schools across Pakistan.
