How i have been trying for 6 months now to come up with a sustainable idea about how to start a social entrepreneurship project involving Denmark
(because i am based here) and Pakistan ( because i am a Pakistani). My target is women and children. To make life better for women by them using their skills and creating stuff which can be sold here and they earn 5+% of the profit, with the 50% that i make i give back to their children so that they can attend school without being a burden on the parents.
Any comments, ideas, suggestions, contacts would be highly appreciated.
Suraiya,
First, good for you for wanting to create something sustainable and for women in Pakistan. Saba Gul, an amazing Pakistani social entrepreneur, is doing something similar with her social enterprise BLISS (Business & Life Skills School): http://www.bagsforbliss.org/
You should reach out to her, she is an amazing resource and perhaps find ways to collaborate or work with her.
good intentions and feelings u have…….may God makes it practical………
Super! Thanks a million. i will contact her right away! ;0)

I’m writing on behalf of Well Settle Welfare Organization, a non-governmental and non-profitable organization that works for the health and betterment of living conditions of special children in and around Karachi. I would like to introduce our organization to you. We are a mid-sized organization that works at the grass root level to make the basic and necessary medical assistance available to the special children. We strive to provide them with clothes, food rehabilitation and therapies as and when we can. We also provide free services from school funds to many disabled children who cannot afford their expenditures. Generous donations by people and organizations help us in our endeavor to give the disabled children a chance at a better life.
Dear Respected Sir,
It is great pleasure for me to join this web site. I am also working to run my own NGO name SEDA-MZG (Social Empowerment & Development Association, Muzaffargarh). I am very upset due to non availability of funding. Currently we are focusing especially Girls IT Education in the most poorest and deserving area of Punjab. It is our vision to provide girls standard IT education on their Doorstep. We are running an IT center, Embroidery Center (Silai Karahai Centre) in Muzaffargarh. We are small own dependent NGO working in the most poorest & targeted area in Muzaffargarh.
