This financial support includes school fees and an allowance on a quarterly basis along with regular provision of an educational kit which includes school bag, curriculum books, stationery, seasonal uniforms and shoes. Additionally, Child Character Development Program has also been designed for moral and social growth of the sponsored children.

For selection of the orphan children to be sponsored under the OFSP, Alkhidmat Foundation Pakistan relies on the network of its volunteers which is effectively operational in all 135 districts of Pakistan. These volunteers identify potential candidates and refer them to our Family Support Organizers (FSOs). The FSOs assess all the referred children through personal visits and other means to prepare their cases along with required additional documentation to forward them to regional offices for further verification. The regional offices verify the authenticity of provided documents and assess the cases on need-based criteria through a local team of volunteers and the community members. Later on, all the forwarded cases are discussed individually and approved for database entry where they are offered to the donors for funding.
