Who We Are
SCF Shop is an initiative by the Serve & Care Foundation (SCF) to financially sustain the educational centres they run for the underprivileged out of school children in Karachi.
SCF is a community-led education initiative founded by Roomi Merchant and Syed Yasir Afzal. SCF established its first learning center on the rooftop of a building in Garden West, Karachi, to serve out-of-school children. At this center, children were introduced to basic literacy through structured programs such as Jugnu and Jolly Phonics.
Today, SCF focuses on identifying out-of-school children and preparing them academically and socially for admission into mainstream educational institutions. The initiative also works closely with families to reduce barriers to education and promote long-term learning outcomes.
