About this facility
- Mission
- Operating from its premises in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, madinatul ilm charitable trust or MICT has rapidly emerged as an active philanthropic organization, dedicated to a variety of functions, ranging from intervening in crisis stricken situations to support for individuals and communities in need. MICT is currently focussed on providing emergency relief and rehabilitation support for victims of Pakistan’s floods of 2010. Earlier in summer 2010, MICT was involved with mobilizing emergency food supplies for more than 6,000 people displaced by an artificial lake at Attabad in Hunza valley. Our activities also include support for students and patients in need and small entrepreneurs seeking start-up capital to launch new business ventures.
MICT Founding Principles & Goals As clear from MICT’s title, we draw our inspiration from our Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (may peace be upon him) who urged his followers time and again to actively pursue their search for knowledge. In line with the teaching of our prophet, elimination of poverty must be central to empowering human beings to cater for themselves. The MICT’s core objectives towards this cause are: 1) To support individuals and communities surrounded by crises ranging from victims in conflict stricken areas to victims of natural disasters. 2) Reaching out to prospective donors and offering them a reliable framework for disbursement of support to individuals in need. 3) Beyond intervening in crisis stricken situations, MICT remains dedicated to a multi-pronged program for grass-root support to those in need. Our programs range from support for students in distress to assistance for small entrepreneurs in need of start up capital for grass root businesses. In dealing with communities in need, we have been involved with initiatives such as small sized water supply projects in arid areas. - Areas served

FROM THE SITE:
Current Endeavours
The crisis unleashed by floods across Pakistan since July 2010 are the main focus of MICT's attention. So far, we have despatched emergency food supplies to parts of south Punjab, the district of Mianwali and Dera Ismail Khan in the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province. We are convinced that the fallout from the floods will require a long term rehabilitation effort across Pakistan. Our main objective is now to help with the rehabilitation of floods victims in areas of our focus. Our present work follows our ongoing commitment to intervene in crisis stricken areas, as demonstrated through our support for victims of violence in parts of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, as well as through our support to students in need of support across Pakistan.
