Who we are
A neighbourhood trust run by the people who live here
Orangi Town is one of Asia's largest informal settlements. Most households here survive on daily wages — a single illness or lost job can undo years of effort. Al-Noor Welfare Trust was started by local residents, teachers and doctors who wanted help to arrive quickly, respectfully and without paperwork.
- Every case is verified by volunteers who live in the same lanes.
- Aid is delivered privately, protecting the dignity of each family.
- Skills training turns short-term relief into lasting income.
