Welcome to Wafaq Children's Home

Children are entitled to various rights. The Primary of these rights is the right to be properly brought up, raised, and education. Every law and religion in the world advocates a safe, secure, and healthy environment for every child where he can grow to be a civilized citizen and contribute to be an asset to the society.

Among the children, Orphans are the most vulnerable of society who are targeted physically, psychologically. It is our first and foremost responsibility as a whole to provide them with adequate protection from such elements. The greatest contribution to the most disadvantaged (orphans and poor) of society is to provide them with love, care and the light of knowledge as well as worldly skills to make them self-sufficient.

We will endeavor to provide the orphans with the love and care they would have received from their parents if they were alive.

The Prophet (Peace be upon him) has said: "The best house amongst the believers is the one in which an Orphan is treated well and the worst house amongst the believers is the one where an Orphan is mistreated."

The board of directors of WAFAQ (Welfare Association of Advancement and Quality) has decided that the Children’s Home will never operate as an “Orphanage,” but rather as a “Home” to care for orphaned and vulnerable children.The Wafaq Children’s Home is a project of WAFAQ to look after orphaned children. It was located in the main city of Mansehra Hazara Pakistan but due to some security issues it is shifted in Abbottabad. Our " Children’s Home " opened its doors after a earthquake badly hit this area in October 2005 and welcomes now up to 52 children. Unfortunately, there are not enough orphanages to accommodate the increasing number of orphans in this region, due to the fact that the extended families who initially stepped forward to look after the orphaned children, are now finding it difficult to support these children. Families in this region, on average, have 6 to 8 members  in a normal scenario, keeping in mind that parents require constant care and medical provisions. There is one earning hand, many dependents, therefore the cost of living is way above the resources. Ultimately this burdens the relatives, who then neglect and such children suffer.

Looking at the prevailing needs of this region WAFAQ has decided to contribute in this cause and launch a project under the name of Wafaq Children’s Home for the orphans and underprivileged children. We at WAFAQ believe to provide a HOME to these Homeless kids.

The main aim of this home is to bring up these children, so that in their life ahead they may become good citizens and effective members of community.
