Zakat constitutes the backbone of annual philanthropic contributions made by Pakistanis to various social causes. Pakistanis contribute around $2 billion in charity annually out of which at least 40% of contributions are Zakat donations.
Your Zakat will go towards providing quality higher education to high-achieving, deserving students from underprivileged backgrounds who would otherwise be unable to access it. Many of these students are the first ones from their families to pursue education beyond secondary level.
