Discover our origins, core values, and the vulnerable communities we serve across Jhang and surrounding districts.
Zariya Foundation was formally established in November 2025 in Jhang, Punjab, Pakistan by youth activist Taazuz Kanwal alongside a dedicated cohort of compassionate students and professionals.
Why Zariya was Founded: We recognized that the most vulnerable segments of our society—resident orphan children, daily-wage laborers facing chronic hunger, exploited child laborers, and flood-affected settlements—often lack access to immediate, dignified support. Zariya was founded to eliminate bureaucratic red tape and deliver immediate humanitarian help directly with zero compromise on human self-respect.
Communities & Social Issues We Address: Our ground work centers on orphan welfare, food security during Ramzan and emergencies, ending child labour exploitation, women's empowerment, mental health, youth civic dialogue via the Human Library, and combatting urban climate degradation through tree plantation.
Every person deserves help with absolute self-respect. We deliver aid without patronization or humiliating display.
Direct field delivery with zero middlemen. Every donation is accounted for and supported by verifiable evidence.
We work not for fame or applause, but for the smile of an orphan child and the relief of a struggling mother.
