About Al Qasim Institute

A trusted home of learning, care, and hope for special children in Jhelum since our founding.

Our Story

A Legacy Built on Compassion

Al Qasim Institute for Special Children was founded in Jhelum with a simple but powerful conviction: every child, regardless of ability, deserves the chance to learn, grow, and belong. What began as a small community effort to support local families has grown into a dedicated institute offering specialised education, therapy, and care to children with a wide range of special needs.

Why We Need Your Support

Sustained by Generosity, Driven by Purpose

Al Qasim Institute operates as a charitable organisation and depends entirely on the generosity of donors, sponsors, and well-wishers to continue providing free or subsidised education, therapy, meals, transport, and care to children who would otherwise have nowhere to turn. Every contribution — large or small — helps us keep our doors open and our promise to these children unbroken.
