Poverty isn’t just about being deprived of financial resources, it’s about the absence of opportunity. In Pakistan, countless individuals continue to face extreme hardship due to prolonged unemployment and rising inflation over the years. Recognising the intensity of this issue, Al-Wahab Foundation responds through its livelihood support program.
For those who inquire about what is livelihood program, it is based on providing rickshaws and sewing machines to food carts and motorbikes, AWF gives deserving individuals the tools to help them earn a sustainable livelihood. Chairman Mufti Abdul Wahab always aims to transform the lives of those who are less fortunate by providing sustainable solutions for their bright future.
What is Livelihood Program at Al-Wahab Foundation?
Al-Wahab Foundation’s livelihood support program is a transformative initiative designed to uplift families and individuals to give them a way out of poverty cycle by providing them tools and resources for self-employment.
As per the vision of Chairman Mufti Abdul Wahab, we provide sustainable income generating solutions instead of offering short-term relief to support families. A Rickshaw can help the deserving individuals considerable income on a daily basis whereas a motorbike can become a source for delivery jobs.
Similarly, providing them with a food cart can help them sell snacks and other items while a sewing machine can empower women with an earning opportunity within the comfort of their homes. Our Rozgar and Women Empowerment Projects focus on providing practical solutions that cater to the needs of the deprived families, ensuring that charity contributed towards this project leads to a better tomorrow.

Uplifting Women through Sewing Machines
Women are often the most susceptible members of society, especially widows, single mothers, and those who are uneducated. Considering them an equal and most important members of a society, AWF distributes sewing machines to the well deserving women to empower them with a sustainable livelihood, allowing them to work from the safety of their homes. Through this opportunity, women can earn with dignity, independence, and contribute significantly in the household income.
Provide Small Businesses: Make the Communities Independent
Taking transformative measures towards economic development at the grassroots level is essential for long-term change. AWF helps individuals start micro-businesses like small snack carts. These ventures meet local needs while providing stable income for the owners and their families.
Each small business has the potential to support multiple people. It can help one pay their rents, educate their children, and contribute to their daily household expenses. When communities are capable of doing something to make themselves financially stable, they grow stronger and more resilient, even in times of crisis..
