Care for orphan
Every child deserves the best start in life: a happy home, a safe place to play and access to quality
education, medical care and nutrition.
However, in India, many of these simple necessities and rights are out of reach. Instead, their life is
incredibly challenging, with the risk of illiteracy, disease, child labor, lifelong poverty and even
death.
Living in poverty or simply unable to go to school due to crippling poverty, these children lack the
means to keep safe at home, access critical education and medical or psychosocial care. Their futures
look unsafe, uncertain and bleak.
Care for education
Every child deserves a quality education. It’s the key to a brighter future,
offering the chance to learn critical skills, grow in self-confidence and escape the brutal cycle of
poverty.
What’s more, not only does accessing education help each and every child build their own futures, but it
also impacts on generation after generation.

Vision & Ethos
The Holy Qur’an describes a ‘godly’ person as someone: “giving a rightful share of their wealth to the
beggar and the deprived” (51:19); while Prophet Mohammad (peace and blessings be upon him) reminds us
that: “Every good act is charity; and the person who guides others to a good act is as the one who did
it; and, assuredly, God loves the act of aiding the distressed!” (Al Bayhaqi).
The Prophet also says that “Love for humanity what you love for yourself!” (Al-Bukhari).
“Whosoever saves a life, it is as if they have saved the lives of all mankind” (Qur’an 5:32)”.
The ethos of Alqasim Education Trust is rooted in these teachings; a belief that providing relief and
aid to others is central to one’s humanity.
