Projects

Every step that we take builds a Foundation towards betterment.

Education

Wain Foundation School

Almost 26 million children in Pakistan are out of school. Most of them are in rural areas or concentrated in underprivileged communities. High dropout rates in such communities show that retention of students is as much a challenge as enrollment. Remedial measures are needed and needed fast. For us in the Wain Foundation one child out of school is one too many. Therefore, the Wain Foundation School is a passion project for us. The school is located in an underdeveloped and underprivileged community in the outer periphery of Lahore comprising more than 150 households living in makeshift shelters. Similar settlements are in the immediate vicinity.

Health

Wain Medical Center

More than 40 percent of Pakistan's children below 5 are suffering from stunted growth, which has long term implications for a child’s mental and physical development. Health indicators on maternal, child and infant mortality, immunization, doctor population ratio, hospital population ratio etc. are far below the acceptable standards. Public sector health facilities, especially BHUs and THQs, are inadequate. In underprivileged areas they are practically nonexistent.

Incubation

Waheed Wain Incubation Center

Almost 64% of Pakistan's population is below 30 years and of this 29% is between the ages of 15 to 29. This youth bulge is one of the biggest in the world. In a rapidly aging population globally, our youthful population is an asset. However, with high unemployment amongst the educated youth, a lack of competitive edge in skills and an alarming incidence of stunted growth in our children, this very asset can easily become a liability.

    Incredibly caring and supportive!

    I was diagnosed with diabetes and felt really down because I couldn't afford the medicines and regular check-ups. I heard about this healthcare facility and decided to visit to see if they could help. The dispensary and the staff there are incredibly caring and supportive. They prioritise and care for every patient, providing them with the necessary medicines.

    Collaboratively find solutions!

    My startup focuses on improving English language proficiency for competitive exams such as CSS and PMS. When I joined this incubation center, I initially expected to work on my project alone. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that we operate as a community here, with people coming together to discuss various issues and collaboratively find solutions.

    Education is every child's right!

    I believe that education is every child's right no matter the gender. I am a daily wager, to put food on the table and bare any medical expenses is more than enough for me to afford, If Wain Foundation didn't gave us this opportunity it was nearly impossible for me to send my children to school.

    Engaging the global target audience!

    My startup is about creating and selling NFTs, and a notable challenge I faced was that my target audience is not limited to local areas but extends internationally. Initially, I lacked the knowledge on how to reach and explore this global market. However, the trainers and mentors played a vital role in guiding me to devise effective strategies for reaching and engaging the global target audience.

Waheed Wain

Abdul Waheed Wain was a self-made leading businessman of Sargodha. Born on 14 August 1928, he spent his early years in Bhopal, where his father worked as a Legal Consul. His father’s death in 1946 and migration to Pakistan after partition, were life transforming events for him. Undaunted by the challenging times, Waheed and his brother Rashid Wain started a modest business in Sargodha, where the Wain family had decided to settle. Sheer hard work, excellent customer relations and ethical business practices, paid off and the business prospered. Waheed Wain later branched off and established another outlet, Mehwar Electronics. He quickly transformed it into the busiest and most trusted name in electronics and a big brand dealership, in and around Sargodha. Expansion to other major cities was there for the asking but Waheed chose to follow his heart, preferring contentment over monetary gains. He remained rooted in Sargodha till he lost his epic battle against cancer, in September 2012.

Waheed Wain was generosity, kindness, contentment and empathy personified. He measured success not in terms of financial gains but in the number of lives he touched and transformed. He never hoarded success and shared it generously, giving credit for it to others. He was epitome of honesty and integrity, and his word was as good as a legal document. In his own way he was very progressive in outlook and readily gave space to others to grow and prosper. Despite his own successes and the stellar achievements of his son, Amir Wain, CEO of i2c Pakistan Pvt Limited, Waheed Wain remained humble and unassuming. Waheed Wain celebrated life in his own way with a child-like capacity to enjoy simple things in life. Always a generous philanthropist, he helped individuals and organizations quietly without hurting anyone's dignity or self-respect. He always encouraged and financially supported his wife, Begum Tahira Waheed Wain, in her social welfare projects relating to women education and economic empowerment, free healthcare for the underprivileged communities, and garbage collection and disposal.
