Seerat-e-Zehra’s journey from a TCF classroom in New Jatoi to studying nursing at Bahria University shows what access to education can make possible for a girl.

The change we see in TCF classrooms carries into homes and communities. It is felt when a child gains the confidence to speak up, when a graduate takes a path their family once thought was out of reach, and when an adult learns to read with independence.

This year’s figures reflect the scale of that impact. Behind them are years of teaching, learning, and persistence. We're grateful to everyone who has stood with us, because these numbers are your impact too. Together, we'll keep the movement going because change begins with education.

Remember something your teacher said that stayed with you?

Sometimes it’s the small things that matter the most. Words that make you believe in yourself, keep going when it’s tough, laugh a little, and dream bigger than ever.

This Teachers’ Day, we asked TCF students: what little things do their teachers say that make them smile, push them forward, and stay with them forever?

Watch their heartfelt, inspiring responses.

The Citizens Foundation (TCF) and Japan International Cooperation Agency - Advancing Quality Alternative Learning (JICA-AQAL) have signed a Technical Letter of Understanding to address one of Pakistan’s most urgent challenges: the 26 million children out of school.

This collaboration will open new pathways for learning through:
âś… Accelerated Learning Programmes to mainstream children back into schools âś… Vocational & technical skills for stronger livelihoods
âś… Adult literacy initiatives
âś… Integrated Learning & Skills (ILS) programmes for employability

Together, we are committed to advancing SDG 4: Quality Education, with a special focus on empowering girls who are most affected.

Through this partnership, JICA will provide technical expertise to strengthen TCF’s non-formal education model, helping us deliver scalable and impactful results across Pakistan. Because every child deserves a second chance at learning, and a brighter future.

Due to recent flooding, some of our Government Partnership & TCF schools in Narowal, Kasur, Sahiwal, Sialkot, Kot Momin, and Muzaffargarh have experienced water in and around their compounds. As per the Government of Punjab’s directive, schools in these districts will remain closed until 7th September. Alhamdulillah, all assets are secure and lives are safe. Meanwhile, the majority of other schools in Punjab are open, and we are delighted to welcome students back. We remain hopeful that the continuity of their learning journey will stay strong.

With flood warnings ahead in a few areas of Sindh, we are taking swift and careful measures to keep our children and their learning spaces safe. On Friday and Saturday, our schools in Sindh will remain closed as a precaution. At the same time, our teams are relocating books, furniture, and equipment to safer locations, ensuring that classrooms are protected and ready to welcome students back once the situation has passed. Our foremost priority, as always, is the safety and well-being of our children, and the continuity of their learning.
