Our Success Stories

“During my bachelor’s from LUMS, I heard the worst news of my life that my dearest mother was suffering from cancer and soon after that, the things started changing. The treating cancer was not an easy task for me and my family; both morally and financially. I was thinking to drop bachelor’s program because my father wasn’t able to arrange sufficient finance to pay my educational expenses. Luckily, a friend told me about Ihsan Trust. I still remember my first interaction with Ihsan Trust’s team and after talking to them, my mental pressure of arranging fees, somehow, released. Ihsan Trust supported me throughout my bachelor’s degree. Later, I got the job as a project Manager at Reckitt Benckiser. IT played a vital role in making me, what I am today. I am proud to be a part of Ihsan Trust and will remain highly obliged to it.”

“I got to know about Ihsan Trust through KSBL itself. "Ihsan Trust provided me with the funds I needed in order to support my quest for quality education and a great faculty." The best thing about Ihsan Trust is that they try to find more students to support. There should always be rules, and people should be scrutinizing so that deserving, underprivileged can get the funds and receive higher education.”

“In the second year of my bachelors, my father's eye surgery placed our family in a financial constraint, where my parents were finding it difficult to afford the cost of my studies. Ihsan Trust assisted in financing and completing my education through Ihsan Trust’s Qarz e Hasna (Interest Free Loan), offering affordable repayments. Today I am a successful IBA graduate, working towards the achievement of my goals - Thanks to the Ihsan Trust..”

“When I joined IBA in 2014, I knew my parents will not be able to afford 4 years of my studies. I used to earn by giving tuitions and wanted to finance my studies myself. Ihsan Trust enabled me to do that by granting me an interest free loan with affordable installments which I could afford myself. They supported me throughout my 4 years of BBA degree. I graduated with a place on Dean's honor list and secured an MT position at Daraz. Today, a major part of this success goes to Ihsan Trust for helping me finance my studies.”
