SID (Sustainable Intervention Drive) was established in 2017. SID is designed to find sustainable solutions, replicable & scaleable models and apply them to community issues. Liberation loans to free debtors from moneylenders, interest free Microfinance, libraries & learning spaces, aids for people with special needs, facilities to old home residents, clothing & bedding for the underprivileged, educational loans & stipends, rations especially during the pandemic, clean drinking water, medical assistance, facilitating counselling services & treatment of drug addicts are the areas we are serving. Currently we are working on a project, Learning Hubs in collaboration with Akhuwat & Walled City of Lahore Authority. These are safe havens for children of sex workers, dancing girls, addicts, street children, destitute families of musicians and performing artists providing educational, technological, health, nutritional, vocational, recreational and counseling services to the most neglected and marginalized section of our society mainly residing inside or in the vicinity of the red light areas and musicians’ enclaves. Learning Hubs is based on the participatory development model. Realising the need of community involvement and a dialogue with the parents and other decision makers of the child’s family the hubs create a communal space for multifaceted engagement. This approach has resulted in the transformation of no go streets with brothels and drug houses into hubs for learning, sharing and support. We are aiming to open a boarding facility for these children and a senior resident. Recently we have started a learning hub in Yasin Gilgit Baltistan for children learning to become hafiz & doing courses of Alima introducing mainstream education in addition to religious instructions.
Our main focus remains on children and ensuring their right to a childhood
