NGO’S BACKGROUND:

TCF is a professionally managed, non-profit organization set up in 1995 by a group of citizens concerned with the dismal state of education in Pakistan. It is now one of Pakistan's leading organizations in the field of formal education. As of 2014, TCF has established 1000 purpose-built School Units nationwide with an enrolment of 145,000 students.

The vision of TCF is to remove barriers of class and privilege and to make the citizens of Pakistan Agents of Positive Change. We believe that access to basic education is the right of each individual and not a privilege. Apart from following the regular curriculum, we focus on the character building of students to equip them with high moral values and confidence.

To achieve these goals, TCF is constantly surveying education-deprived locations in Pakistan to extend its network. Each new location is appraised through an extensive land survey, assessment of income level, number and standard of existing schools in the area, demand for new School Units, availability of an accessible site to build a school, qualified teachers in the area and a number of other criteria.
