Every child has the right to learn.
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) asserts that every child is entitled to an education, including free primary education and access to various forms of secondary education. However, in many developing countries, children’s access to education is hindered by numerous challenges. Poverty, dependence on child labour, conflict, and other barriers often obstruct the delivery of free and quality education. The world’s most vulnerable children, particularly those from disadvantaged communities, girls, and children with special needs, are at a higher risk of being excluded from school.
An estimated 22.8 million children aged 5-16 are out of school
Minhaj Welfare Foundation has launched its annual Back to School campaign to ensure that all children have the opportunity to receive education and acquire the skills necessary to succeed in life. We strive to ensure that everyone has free access to quality education, with particular emphasis on lowering barriers and closing gender gaps.
We believe that educating a child not only allows them to rewrite their future but to uplift those around them. It takes a child to raise a village if you give them a chance.
Educare:
Millions of children never set foot in a classroom, but we are committed to changing that through a range of impactful initiatives. We operate over 600+ educational institutes providing quality education and have awarded over 250,000 need-based and academic scholarships to deserving students. Our vision is to end the global education crisis and unlock the potential of the next generation.
Our Girls Our Future:
Globally, 119 million girls are out of school, with those in conflict zones more than twice as likely to be uneducated. Despite its importance for development, gender disparities in education persist. We work to break down barriers and promote gender equality in education, even in challenging environments, because investing in girls’ education drives development. Our goal is to ensure every girl completes her education and gains essential life and work skills.
Aghosh Orphan Care Home:
The project creates a nurturing and stable family environment for orphaned, abandoned, and vulnerable children worldwide. It addresses each child’s basic needs—food, water, and shelter—along with their developmental needs, including education, medical care, vocational training, and life skills. The project also provides emotional support, allowing children to heal from their losses and feel part of a loving family again. Through this comprehensive approach, Aghosh offers long-term care that empowers young people to reach their full potential, transforming the lives of thousands of children every year.

Build A School:
Education is crucial in breaking the cycle of poverty that grips so many around the world. Unfortunately, it remains one of the most underfunded areas of humanitarian aid, but we’re determined to change that. We build and renovate schools in remote and impoverished areas, providing children worldwide with access to education and essential resources.
