Our Founder

A Vision That Changed Lives

Farhat Yasmin — later known as Farhat Kamal — founded the Fatima Jinnah Unique Welfare Organization in 1999 with a simple but powerful belief: every person deserves access to education, skills, and dignity.

Over the following 13 years, her vision grew into a network of schools, vocational centres, eye camps, microfinance programs, and community welfare initiatives that touched thousands of lives across Chakwal and surrounding regions.

"True success is not in what we gain, but in what we give back to society."

— Farhat Kamal
