The Citizens Foundation (TCF), Pakistan’s leading education-focused non-profit organisation, celebrated its annual Annual Awards Ceremony 2025, recognising the exceptional commitment and performance of its teachers, principals, students and non-faculty.
The ceremony was graced by Inspector General of Sindh Police, Ghulam Nabi Memon, who shared his thoughts on the importance of appreciation and education.
I truly believe recognition matters. Celebrating teachers creates healthy competition and inspires them to give their best to their students. Through TCF, countless less-privileged children are gaining access to education, and leaders like Mr. Mushtaq Chapra are guiding us toward the milestones achieved by successful nations. I am confident we are on the right path
After multiple award ceremonies held across various cities in Pakistan, the final segment concluded in Karachi, bringing together more than 5,000 teachers and principals from Karachi and interior Sindh, along with senior management and head office teams.
TCF employs over 16,500 female teachers and principals across its network of 2,261 school units, making it one of the largest women employers in the country. These dedicated principals and teachers are the backbone of TCF’s movement, teaching more than 320,000 students every day and shaping them into agents of positive change. To support safe and reliable mobility for its female faculty, more than 700 TCF vans operate daily, connecting teachers to schools in remote and underserved communities.
Every TCF teacher and principal I have met carries a remarkable sense of purpose. They don’t just teach, they shape character, instill values, and nurture each child as their own. Their resilience, sincerity, and deep commitment form the foundation of a more educated and enlightened Pakistan
