Surgical Recovery Support
Malawi
This project is designed to support surgical patients from hospitals in Blantyre and Lilongwe. While surgical interventions by various charities and organizations are common in developing regions, these initiatives often focus solely on the medical procedures, overlooking essential patient support. Many patients travel from other cities via public transport and come from low-income backgrounds, lacking the necessary nutrients to maintain their health post-surgery. Additionally, surgeries often require aftercare equipment such as antiseptic creams, sanitary towels, bandages, and colostomy bags, which are either unavailable or prohibitively expensive at local pharmacies.
Our program addresses these gaps by providing transportation and individualized care packages to patients. These packages ensure that patients have access to the necessary resources for a healthy recovery, ultimately improving their overall outcomes and quality of life post-surgery.
Every Childhood Matters: Education Empowerment Program
In Pakistan, 11 million children are engaged in work, preventing them from attending school and acquiring vital skills for future opportunities. With a literacy rate of just 62.3%, approximately 60 million people in the country are illiterate. To address this critical issue, our program in Lahore, Punjab, is in its initial stage and aims to sponsor 50 children aged 5-12, covering their school fees, wages, clothing, and monthly grocery supplies.
Our goal is to provide these children with the opportunity to focus entirely on their education and personal growth. We believe that by relieving them of financial burdens, they can devote their time to studying, learning, exploring, and enjoying their childhood. Incentives will be offered to students for punctual attendance and good academic performance, encouraging them to excel.
Our local officers in Lahore will receive quarterly reports from the schools to monitor each child's progress. If any additional academic, mental, or emotional support is needed, we will develop customized plans to address these needs. Beyond the standard curriculum, the children will receive extra classes in English to enhance their international communication skills and participate in personal development workshops covering financial literacy, critical thinking, health, and artistic expression.
This program aims to break the cycle of child labour by providing comprehensive support and education, equipping these children with the skills and knowledge necessary for a brighter future.

Voices from the Mountains
Empowering Women Affected by Climate Change in Northern Pakistan
This initiative trains women from marginalized communities to share their lived experiences of climate change on national and international platforms. Through workshops in public speaking, storytelling, confidence building, and program design, participants gain the tools to advocate for themselves and their communities. The program blends communication training with leadership development, enabling women to shape narratives and influence policy through the power of their stories. It's not just about climate—it's about visibility, voice, and transformation.
We believe those most affected by climate change must be central to the conversation. This program supports women in becoming not just storytellers, but changemakers and leaders in the environmental space.
Roots & Resilience: Beauty Training for Empowerment
Restoring Dignity through Skill-Based Livelihoods for Marginalized Women in Pakistan and Bangladesh
This program provides professional training in hair and beauty to marginalized women in Pakistan and Bangladesh. Delivered by UK-based experts who speak local languages and specialize in trauma-informed approaches, the initiative focuses on creating pathways to independence and sustainable careers. Participants will learn technical skills alongside foundational business knowledge, empowering them to start their own ventures or enter the workforce with confidence. Rooted in cultural understanding and sensitivity, this program is about more than beauty—it's about restoring dignity, building resilience, and opening doors.
We aim to create safe, nurturing learning environments where women can reconnect with their self-worth. The long-term goal is to build networks of female professionals who support one another and uplift their communities.

A Culinary Journey Through South Asia
Our tasting menu nights celebrate the rich culinary traditions of South Asia—from the highland flavors of Bhutan to the riverine cuisines of Bangladesh.
