Sindh Education Foundation (SEF) was established in 1992 as a semi-autonomous organization to undertake educational initiatives in the disadvantaged areas of Sindh. The Foundation’s initial activities began with the provision of grants and loans to educational institutes and organizations. However, SEF now provides communities with direct access to educational facilities by opening schools/centres through its various endeavors.
Furthermore the Foundation also undertakes research initiatives, both qualitative and quantitative, to study the impact of its programs and identify improved systems for community enhancement. SEF's publications include EDucate! Pakistan's 1st Magazine on Education & Development, Nurture, Pakistan’s Pioneer Publication on Early Childhood Development, Quantitative Analysis Booklet, Collective, the organization’s Newsletter, SEF ten year document and various literacy manuals.
