Action Beyond Words: Turning Social Realities Into Change
Ek Pahel Welfare Foundation is a dedicated social welfare organization working towards youth empowerment, social awareness, and inclusive community development. The foundation conducts motivational and awareness programs and actively works to connect government welfare schemes with people at the grassroots level. Through persistent on-ground efforts, we strive to build an informed, responsible, and empowered society.
Our work is grounded in direct community engagement. Rather than treating communities as passive recipients of aid, we train local youth to become educators, cyber-safety ambassadors, and civic facilitators in their own villages and wards.

Direct On-Ground Engagement
Holding direct dialogues with rural youth and elders to understand and resolve grassroot challenges.

Transforming Intention into Grassroots Action
“True change begins when intention is followed by action.”
Junaid Hashmi, Founder of Ek Pahel Welfare Foundation, began his professional journey in the media sector. During his career, he realized that while media plays a vital role in highlighting social issues and reflecting the realities of society, there is an equally important need for direct and proactive action to create meaningful change on the ground.
Driven by this realization and a strong sense of social responsibility, he established Ek Pahel Welfare Foundation with the vision of contributing positively to society. The foundation works towards motivating youth, creating social awareness, and connecting people with government welfare initiatives to ensure inclusive development.
Through Ek Pahel Welfare Foundation, the aim is to move beyond awareness and actively participate in building a more informed, empowered, and responsible society—because true change begins when intention is followed by action.
