Future Outlook<br />
Having crossed the 1,000 school units’ milestone, TCF is now setting its sights upon taking up even more ambitious challenges<br />
and pursuing a dramatic expansion of its programme. We are researching and incubating a number of possible pathways to this<br />
growth. These alternatives include direct participation and indirect intervention in the low fee private school sector as well as<br />
collaborating with the Government sector under Public-Private Partnership programmes. We are also exploring the use of<br />
technology to achieve consistent, high quality learning outcomes in formal classrooms as well as less formal, community<br />
settings. Meanwhile, work on launching a TCF Higher Secondary College is also well under way. As these efforts mature in the<br />
next 2-3 years, growth in the scale and scope of our operations will accelerate significantly.<br />
Sustainability<br />
During the year ended June 30, 2015, TCF’s Endowment Fund has witnessed a growth of 41% from Rs. 972.9 million<br />
(US $ 9.6 million) to Rs. 1,369.9 million (US $ 13.5 million) which reflects the efforts of the Foundation towards achieving<br />
sustainability. Moreover, we are looking at formally introducing the ‘TCF Future Fund’ in the next year with the aim to raise and<br />
achieve a total endowment fund of US $100 million in the next 5 years in order to provide increased sustainability to TCF. We<br />
are very thankful to our donors who realize the importance of financial sustainability of the organization and have generously<br />
contributed to the same.<br />
Objective, Strategies and Subsequent Events<br />
There is no significant change in the Foundation’s objective and strategies from the previous year. No material changes or<br />
commitments affecting the financial position of the Foundation have taken place between the end of the year and the date of<br />
this report.<br />
Acknowledgements<br />
We are grateful to the All Merciful, with whose benevolence TCF has been able to progress and maintain its credibility. TCF owes<br />
its success to every single individual who has either joined the movement by donating or working in any capacity with<br />
compassion to further the cause. My humble and deepest appreciation for thousands of volunteers, friends and supporters in<br />
Pakistan and from around the world who are committed to TCF and continue to create awareness and raise funds for the<br />
Education Programme.<br />
On behalf of the Board of Directors.<br />
