Our mission is to help the poor people in Pakistan directly and to help them acquire the tools and skills to help themselves. In our view, one of the best ways of improving the condition of Pakistan as well as the vast number of poor families is through the education of the youth. Education provides opportunities for the uplift of entire communities if the next generation is equipped with the basic requirements of making a sufficient livelihood combined with a knowledge of civic responsibility.
To further this objective and to provide direct aid to the needy, we will continue to focus on our existing efforts to identify and offer scholarships to bright but in-need-of-assistance students. We continue to look into all possible ways of expanding this goal and welcome your input.
The application process consists of the following steps:
• With KEF’s permission, the selected university places an ad in the university’s newspaper
• Students start registering on the university’s portal by visiting the website www.kamran educational foundation.org, and completing the KEF application.
• The department head of the University’s scholarship department calls the recipients for an interview to make sure that the selected student is in need of the funds and that she/he does fulfill KEF’s requirements of being deserving.
• Priority is always given to disabled students if there are any in that institution.
• The interview process takes about 2 months. Once the university selects the most deserving students, they send a complete file of 100+ beneficiaries’s applications through google docs.
• Kef carefully checks each application and makes sure that all required documents are attached. If anything is missing, KEF reaches out to Pakistani university to provide the missing documentation.
• After KEF completes this process, it transfers funds via its bank to the selected university’s scholarship account through wire transfer.
• In the case of students who are continuing scholarship recipients, the university deducts the balance that is owed by the students and gives them the remaining allocation. That way their balance is paid off and they are ready for the new year.
