Careem partners with TCF to take more children ‘off the streets and into schools’

According to the National Education Management Information System (NEMIS), more than 22 million children in Pakistan have never seen the inside of a classroom. This leaves them destined to a cycle of illiteracy, poverty and street life. Careem has decided to become a part of the solution with The Citizen’s Foundation (TCF), one of the largest not-for-profit working for low-cost formal education in Pakistan.

For the entire month of Ramzan, Careem will set up a car type for TCF, where additional Rs20 will be charged to the customer who opts for it and Careem will match the amount of the funds raised. These funds will go towards educating children from less privileged communities and enabling quality education for them.

Generosity and inclusion are among Careem’s core values. Careem partnered with TCF because of the transparent nature of the organization and faith in their core values of integrity, ownership and continuous improvement. Careem does not only wish to revolutionize the technology sector in Pakistan, it also aims to help serve the community through socially-conscious initiatives. Given that education is a pressing issue in Pakistan, it is crucial that everyone plays their part to help the cause of education.

A similar partnership between TCF and Careem last year helped raise funds last Ramzan to support education, which helped in putting more children in school and be a greater part of TCF’s education movement. Careem is committed to being more than just a service, and promises to build a better Pakistan by enabling education for all.
