    20 YEARS OF BELIEVING IN PAKISTAN ANNUAL REPORT 2015 The true strength of a nation lies with its citizens – people who are aware, responsible and have faith in their ability to drive change for the better. Twenty years ago, The Citizens Foundation began as a result of such faith on the part of ordinary citizens. Today, 1,060 school units later, our journey reflects the intense desire of thousands of Pakistanis around the world to see their homeland emerge from the darkness of ignorance and illiteracy. Together, we believe in the amazing potential of every child who walks into a TCF school every morning, and the many million others who do not have the same opportunity. We believe that these children can become productive members of their communities and empowered agents of positive change in this country. We Believe in Pakistan! Legal Status and Nature of Operations The Citizens Foundation (‘the Foundation’) was incorporated in Pakistan as company limited by guarantee on 24 September 1996 under section 42 of the Companies’ Ordinance, 1984. The Foundation is principally engaged in establishing schools to promote education. The Foundation receives funds from cross sections of society within and outside Pakistan for building primary and secondary schools as well as for operation of schools.
