Charagar Foundation
سماجی خدمت
Emergency medical and education support for families in need across Pakistan, with a focus on Gilgit-Baltistan.
مقصد
Charagar Foundation is a not-for-profit founded by Karar Barcha in 2021. It pays for urgent medical treatment for patients who cannot afford it and stays with each case through to rehabilitation. It also covers school fees for children at risk of dropping out and organises Ramadan food drives.
What the foundation does
Charagar Foundation exists for the moment a family faces a medical bill it cannot pay. The foundation takes on the most urgent and deserving cases, raises the money through a public appeal, and stays with the patient from treatment through to recovery and rehabilitation.
Programmes
- Medical emergencies. Financial support for surgery, hospital care and follow-up treatment for patients from low-income families.
- Education. School fees, uniforms and supplies for talented students who would otherwise drop out because of money.
- Social services. Volunteer-run iftar meal and ration distribution during Ramadan.
How appeals work
Each case is published on charagar.org with its target and the amount raised so far, and supporters give directly to that case. Follow-up posts report on how the money was used and how the patient or student is doing.
Where it works
The foundation is based in Aliabad, Hunza (Gilgit-Baltistan) and Islamabad, and supports families across Pakistan.
