"It is Pakistan Literacy Fund's firm belief that the lives of ordinary people are directly linked to their individual levels of education. There is no doubt that the lack of quality and mass education is a key factor in the poor economic standard of living and domestic activities of a nation, specially the youth. It is necessary to channel the energies of such youth towards that which would improv
e their hopes for the future and, thereby, that of the country. Education is an empowering force and one that aims to liberate the minds and hearts of a society. It is PLF's objective in recognizing this as a fact and working towards such an endeavor. Whereas there are several organized groups supporting and working for this cause in Pakistan, we have chosen to work with CARE Foundation, whose organizational leadership and experience in this arena, we have found, not only to be noteworthy, but also exemplary. CARE Foundation is an independent indigenous Pakistani organization and, therefore, most able to tackle the task at hand. PLF supports the work and educational activities of CARE Foundation (Pakistan), the while realizing that there are others in the field that also aspire towards similar goals and objectives. We join hands with all who are sincerely working towards improving the future prospects of the disenfranchised ordinary peoples of Pakistan."
