Our Story

Born from Compassion, Driven by Purpose

The Bashar Falahi Foundation was established in 2016 by a group of dedicated individuals from Skardu who witnessed firsthand the struggles of orphans, disabled persons, and impoverished families in Gilgit-Baltistan's rugged terrain.

What began as a small community initiative to support a handful of orphaned children quickly grew into a registered welfare organization with structured programs spanning education, healthcare, skills development, and emergency relief.

Today, BFF operates across Skardu and surrounding districts, having impacted over 15,000 lives through transparent, community-driven programs that create lasting change.
