Kareem Arafat Foundation (K.A.F)
The Kareem Arafat Foundation is dedicated to helping disadvantaged children in Southeast Asia gain access to quality education and school essentials. We believe that every child deserves the tools to learn, dream, and succeed, no matter their background.
What We Do
-
Provide school supplies such as notebooks, backpacks, and pencils to underfunded schools.
-
Support mentorship programs, like Brighter Futures Mentorship, connecting students with role models who inspire academic achievement.
-
Create opportunities for students to develop confidence, curiosity, and resilience through community support projects.
Our Impact
Since its creation, the foundation has:
-
Reached rural and urban schools in Sri Lanka.
-
Supported children with resources that empower them inside and outside the classroom.
-
Built bridges between communities through service and mentorship.
Why It Matters
The foundation reflects the same values behind BuildMyPath: empowerment, education, and access. While BuildMyPath connects young people to internships and professional growth, the foundation ensures children in underserved communities have the foundation they need to one day pursue those same opportunities.
