A mission to make a difference
One out of every five people currently lives on US $1.25 per day or less, according to a United Nations report. One in every two children lives in poverty around the world, living each day as though it is still the 1929 Great Depression. Over 1 billion people will go to sleep without food each night, and over 600 million people don’t have access to clean water.
836 million people still live in extreme poverty. On the other hand, around 1.6 billion are suffering from over-eating and obesity. What an absurdity in this world that such a discrepancy exists, and I have always felt that I should do something good in my effort to correct this anomaly.
I am a firm supporter of individual social responsibility. My commitment to see a more socially responsible world and a desire to share my knowledge of the noble principles of sustainable development, inclusive growth, global peace, and national pride led to the formation of the Alleem Foundation.
The hallmark of the Alleem Foundation is its focus to strive for and support these principles, rising beyond the barriers of cast, creed, color, religion, or nationality, and to support and enlighten all with a mission to put a smile on each of their faces. The logo of the Alleem Foundation best exemplifies this philosophy, with its image of four happy faces represented in the varied hues of the four primary colors. These colorful, happy faces drive home the message of how the simple act of being socially responsible brings about happiness in the lives of others and creates an environment for efficiency and growth.
The Alleem Foundation also serves as the platform that financially and morally supports the endeavors of the various knowledge and networking units of the Alleem Knowledge Center, such as the Alleem Library, Alleem Brilliant Networking, Alleem Business Congress, Alleem Strategy Clubs, and Alleem Executive Education Programs.
