What Are We Doing?
Shakarganj Foundation has adopted 21 Government Girls Schools where we periodically implement infrastructure enhancements to ensure a more comfortable learning environment for our students. We also provide our students with a Nutrition Program through which we distribute milk and seasonal fruits to ensure a healthy and balanced diet. We also provide our students and staff with basic necessities such as adequate clothing, notebooks and stationary, comfortable furniture such as desks, chairs and tables and clean drinking water.
Shakarganj Foundation’s Healthcare Arm consists of two Stationed Dispensaries and two Mobile Dispensaries. This setup caters not only to our employees and their families but to anyone living in the cities of Jhang and Bhone and their surrounding areas. Walk-ins are welcomed and examined by our highly qualified and trained doctors and nurses and are accorded medicines as per their diagnosis, ONE HUNDRED PERCENT FREE OF COST.
Shakarganj Foundation’s Adult Literacy Program is modeled after the well known Jugno Sabaq and has a proven record of a positive social and economic impact on society. It equips adults with no previous educational history with the ability to read and write and also enables them with basic mathematical skills. To date a total of 3,250 adults have been benefited from Shakarganj Foundation’s Adult Literacy Program.
