EVERY CHILD DESERVES THE RIGHT TO GO TO SCHOOL, BUT UNFORTUNATELY NOT EVERY CHILD GETS THAT OPPORTUNITY.THE CORE OBJECTIVE OF KARWAN E ILM FOUNDATION IS TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO POOR AND DESERVING BUT TALENTED YOUTHS SO THAT THEY COULD UNDERTAKE THEIR HIGHER STUDIES. EDUCATION IS HIGHLY VALUED BY PAKISTANIS, BUT UNFORTUNATELY THERE IS A SEVERE SHORTAGE OF QUALITY LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES IN THE COUNTRY, ESPECIALLY FOR POOR RURAL COMMUNITIES. GIRLS IN THESE AREAS ARE OFTEN THE WORST OFF. PAKISTAN RANKS AS ONE OF THE COUNTRIES WITH THE MOST OUT-OF-SCHOOL CHILDREN. THERE IS HUGE DEMAND FOR EDUCATION FROM PAKISTANI CHILDREN AND THEIR PARENTS BUT ONE-THIRD OF CHILDREN AGES 6-16 CANNOT READ A SIMPLE STORY AND ONLY HALF CAN WRITE A SENTENCE. PAKISTANI YOUTH WANT TO ACQUIRE THE SKILLS NEEDED TO ENTER THE WORKFORCE, YET ONE OUT OF EVERY FOUR YOUTH AGES 10 TO 19 NEVER GET INSIDE THE CLASSROOM. KARWAN E ILM FOUNDATION PROVIDES FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO KARWAN E ILM FOUNDATION, PAKISTAN THAT
