Islamabad: – The leading Sindh-based educational charity, Green Crescent Trust (GCT), is set to hold consecutive get-togethers in Lahore and Islamabad, seeking philanthropic support from prominent businessmen and industrialists in Punjab and the federal capital to accelerate its mission of enrolling out-of-school children across Sindh. GCT CEO Zahid Saeed will deliver a compelling presentation highlighting key facts and figures related to the current education crisis in Pakistan. He will also outline a practical and impactful way forward, proposing sustainable solutions to address the serious challenges facing school education—particularly for underprivileged children—through GCT’s proven and scalable model.

For the past 31 years, Green Crescent Trust (GCT) has been working tirelessly to eradicate illiteracy and provide quality education to children from underprivileged communities. The trust has established a network of 173 charitable schools in remote and neglected rural areas of Sindh, with a total enrolment of 34,660 students, over 40 per cent of whom are girls. Among these students, 2,150 orphans receive specialized support for both their education and welfare, delivered by more than 2,000 qualified teachers committed to serving deprived communities.
