Education

            Primary & Secondary Education
            In order to bring a positive & lasting change in the
            community by educating the underprivileged children,
            Interloop Welfare Trust partnered with THE CITIZENS
            FOUNDATION in 2009 and has so far established 27
            schools, including 3 during 2020, in the rural areas around
            Faisalabad city. Managed by female staff, these schools
            provide quality education to 3,400 less privileged children,
            50% girls. Interloop has created an endowment fund
            for supporting lifetime operating cost of 16 schools and
            provides funds for the annual operational cost of remaining
            schools. Since 2012, 175 executives from Interloop Limited
            have voluntarily mentored 760 students from classes 8 and
