|---|---|---|
| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
Para 1.17 | The objects of the charity are to relieve poverty by providing food and clothing or other useful items and providing monies to fund projects to provide school fees, books and materials or other items for the education and training of children, students and teachers at Christian Churches and Schools in Pakistan as the charity trustees may from time to time think fit and; to fulfil such other purposes which are exclusively charitable according to the law of England and Wales. |
| Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts. |
Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
1. The Charity has been able to buy the school text books for 120 school students, from two different schools, as well as the writing books. We also paid for printing the exams papers, tests papers, exams results cards. 2. The Charity has continued to operate afternoon class for the classes 9thand 10th students. This is particularly beneficial for the school students who had passed the middle schools, but whose parents were unable to afford further education for their children. The very basic education requirement in Pakistan is graduation from class 10. Previously students had been taught up to 8thclass. 3. The Charity also helped to improve the learning environment for students by replacing two broken down electric fans, and a water cooler. |

Achievements and Performance

|---|---|---|
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The Charity and its operations are making real difference to the lives of poor communities. As a result of the Charity’s intervention, the absentee students number have decreased. Furthermore, the number of students dropping out of the classes has been reduced. The new class in the afternoon has also meant that the girls who would have most probably joined their mothers in the lowly paid domestic workers jobs, before getting married early, would be able to pass their basic school level exams and go on to further education, or learn other basic skills and be able to contribute to the family income, which in turn mean that the parents wouldn’t regard them as economic burden and try to marry them at an early age. |
