About Us

Who We Are

Pravalli Welfare Trust is a registered non-profit organization dedicated to uplifting underprivileged communities across rural Pakistan. Our work spans clean drinking water, education, healthcare, solar-powered irrigation, vocational training, and sustainable development — addressing the most pressing needs of families the system tends to leave behind.

The word Pravalli means “brotherhood” in the local language of Rawalpindi and Abbottabad, and it shapes everything we do. We don’t hand out charity and walk away. We help communities identify, organize, and carry out their own development projects — funding 70 to 100 percent of the cost while local people lead the work. The result is dignity, ownership, and change that lasts.

Our Story

Pravalli Welfare Trust was established in the year 2000 as a registered trust, founded by Col (R) Mushtaq Ahmed. What began in the districts of Abbottabad and Haripur in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has, over 25 years, grown to reach communities in Sindh, Baluchistan, Punjab, and the Thar Desert.

The conviction at the heart of it has never changed: people living in poverty don’t lack capability — they lack resources and a fair start. Rather than wait for help that rarely arrives, Pravalli helps communities pool their own effort and completes what they cannot fund alone. Each project — a water scheme, a school, a home, a herd of goats — is a step toward a self-reliant future. Not charity. Empowerment.

What We Do

Every program we run is designed to solve a real, daily problem — water you can drink, a school within reach, a roof that holds, an income that grows. Our projects reach families across Sindh, Baluchistan, KPK, Punjab, and the Thar Desert.

  • Clean Water Schemes — wells and supply schemes bringing safe drinking water to villages that had none.
  • Free Schools in Thar — free schooling and teachers for children in the desert regions of Sindh and Baluchistan.
  • Homes for the Homeless — one-room houses built and handed over to destitute families, most of them widows.
  • Goats & Solar Irrigation — livestock and solar pumps that let desert families farm, earn, and feed themselves year-round.
  • Medical Camps — monthly free camps in remote KPK and Sindh, providing checkups and free medicine.
  • Training & Micro-Finance — stitching, computer, and trade training, plus direct support for widows and orphan girls’ weddings.

Our Impact

Over 25 years, your support has built measurable, lasting change across Pakistan:

  • 702 one-room homes built for poor families
  • 3,419 goats given to desert families

  • 828 wheelchairs and tricycles provided to the disabled

What Guides Us

Trust. Donors can support a specific widow, school, or family directly — and speak to them themselves. We only connect; we never come between.

Transparency. Every scheme is documented and accounted for. When you give, you can see exactly where it goes and the life it reaches.

Transformation. We measure success in self-reliance, not dependency — in a family that no longer needs us because the work took root.

Get Involved

Support a water scheme, sponsor a child’s schooling, or stand beside a widow and her children. Every contribution becomes something real.
