Launch of South Asia Assistance in Education

Launch of South Asia Assistance for the Impoverished in Education (SAAIE)

CREF will be the prime donor of SAAIE

On the auspicious occasion of Australia Day, I am pleased to announce the launch of South Asia Assistance for the Impoverished in Education (SAAIE).

SAAIE is an organisation that will provide financial assistance to the impoverished children of South Asia. The financial assistance will be awarded in the form of scholarships to those children who could not bear the expense of their study/schooling.

Syed Atiq ul Hassan, feeling the pain and need of the time, made a mission to devote himself and his long-term professional expertise in establishing an organisation that would provide financial assistance to orphan, poor and the most talented children of South Asia, commencing from Pakistan. In this regard, Mr. Hassan has established an organisation – South Asia Assistance for Impoverished in Education (SAAIE) – that will fulfil his noble dream.

The goal of SAAIE requires long term steady hard work and support of sponsors, donors and philanthropists. In the first step, SAAIE’s focus will be to create scholarships for the primary and secondary school children in Pakistan.

SAAIE will receive funds from its donors. SAAIE’s donors can be individuals, groups, companies, autonomous bodies and government agencies. However, the major funds will be generated by organising various public/community events. Chand Raat Eid Festival (CREF) will be a prime donor of SAAIE. All the funds generated from CREF will be donated to SAAIE.
