About Us

Our Story

Al-Firdous Welfare Association (AFWA) began its journey in 2008 with a humble initiative to empower women in Barakahu, Islamabad, by establishing a sewing center. Over time, this mission evolved, addressing a critical need for education in underprivileged communities. In 2011, AFWA laid the foundation for the Al-Firdous Community Model School, providing free quality education to children who otherwise had limited access to learning opportunities. Fueled by a passion to transform lives, AFWA grew into a comprehensive welfare organization, introducing advanced IT classes, vocational training programs, and health initiatives. With a focus on eradicating poverty through education and empowerment, AFWA now serves as a beacon of hope for countless families. By combining education, skill development, and community welfare, AFWA continues to make a profound impact, nurturing a generation equipped to break the cycle of poverty and create a brighter future for themselves and their communities.
