Ehsas@tgss is a heartfelt school-based charity initiative born out of compassion and commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of those in need. Spearheaded by Ms. Mishal Kamran, our Senior Project Associate and Operations, in collaboration with The Guardian School System, Ehsas@tgss was established in 2021 with a progressive mandate:
“Building Leaders of Tomorrow with a Heart 
"
"At The Guardian School System, we believe that education extends beyond academic excellence. It encompasses nurturing empathetic, responsible, and compassionate individuals who are committed to making a positive impact on society. Ehsas@tgss embodies this philosophy by integrating community service and philanthropy into our school’s culture. Our initiative not only addresses immediate needs within our community but also instills in our students the values of empathy, kindness, and social responsibility.
Here’s a glimpse into our impactful journey:
- Sponsorship of Free Education: We’ve sponsored the education of 80 students from low-income households, ensuring that financial constraints don’t hinder their academic pursuits.
- Provision of Educational Essentials: We’ve provided free course book sets and uniforms to deserving students, empowering them to excel in their studies with confidence.
- Flood Relief Drives: In times of crisis, we’ve spearheaded flood donation drives, collecting funds and essential items such as clothes, blankets, food, mosquito nets, water, milk, and tents. These were then donated to the Al-Khidmat Foundation, a trusted NGO, in September 2022, to aid those severely impacted by floods.
- Ramadan Support: For three consecutive years, we’ve collected funds and sponsored Ramadan packages, ensuring that families in need have access to essential provisions during this sacred month. Additionally, we’ve organized Iftar Dastarkhawans (Spreads), providing nutritious meals to several low-income individuals who were on duty in the locality.
- Scholarship Programs: We’ve launched several need and merit-based scholarships, offering deserving students the opportunity to pursue their educational aspirations regardless of financial barriers. Our evaluation process ensures that assistance reaches those who need it most, based on thorough inspection and evidence of financial need.
- Animal Kindness Campaigns: We’ve initiated workshops against animal abuse, teaching students the importance of kindness and empathy towards animals, especially in the context of Pakistan. These campaigns are aimed at creating a compassionate community that respects and loves all living beings.
- Community Services and Empathy Training: We’ve integrated community service into our school’s curriculum to cultivate good human beings. By engaging in various service projects, our students learn the importance of empathy, kindness, and social responsibility. These activities help in shaping them into empathetic and kind-hearted individuals.
- Bake Sales and Charity Fairs: Our bake sales and charity fairs are not just fundraising events but also opportunities for our students to engage with the community, understand the value of giving, and develop a sense of responsibility towards society.

Through these initiatives, we aim to build a future generation that is not only academically proficient but also morally and ethically grounded.
