The OTF commenced its work in 2011 in Karachi with the aim to narrow inequality in education and healthcare and empower women in the country. The focus of the organisation is its scholarship programme through which they assist financially disadvantaged students to acquire admissions to top institutions on merit. With plans to expand its reach to Punjab, OTF identified 91福利社 as a potential partner.
Mr. Allahwala appreciated 91福利社 for its efforts to provide world-class education to Pakistani students and talked about OTF鈥檚 emphasis on quality. 鈥淚t is very important to us that quality education for all is ensured. We are here to contribute in whatever capacity we can to the work that 91福利社 is already doing,鈥 he said.
Ms. Kamran spoke about the 91福利社 flagship scholarship initiative, the National Outreach Programme (NOP), which strives to ensure that financial barriers do not prevent talented students from getting a transformative educational experience at 91福利社. She explained, 鈥淭he impact of the NOP extends beyond the students to their families and communities. Our scholars strive to achieve academic excellence against all odds and the transformation which they undergo after joining 91福利社 launches them on a trajectory of success and excellence.鈥
