Curriculum Triangulation:

Daadras Foundation, through Project Salam, is proud to be a pioneering force in Pakistan by offering a unique, triangulated curriculum tailored specifically for underserved children. Our curriculum combines IT training, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), and critical thinking—a powerful trio designed to bridge educational gaps and empower young minds with essential 21st-century skills. This holistic approach not only equips children with technical skills in IT but also nurtures their emotional resilience and problem-solving abilities, creating a well-rounded foundation for future success. We are committed to breaking barriers to quality education and providing these children with opportunities often reserved for the more privileged, making Daadras Foundation a trailblazer in Pakistan's educational landscape.

Self-Reliance as our Approach:

At Daadras Foundation, our approach to ration distribution goes beyond simply providing monthly supplies. We believe in fostering self-reliance and independence within the communities we support. Instead of offering aid indiscriminately, we assess each recipient's situation, and for those capable of working, we encourage and assist them in finding employment opportunities. This approach is rooted in our philosophy that sustainable support means helping people stand on their own feet, rather than fostering dependency. By promoting self-sufficiency, we aim to empower individuals and families to secure their own future, ensuring that our support creates lasting, positive change.
