💚 Poverty in Bagh
Behind the breathtaking mountains of Bagh lie stories of struggle. Many families live below the poverty line, relying on daily wages or small-scale farming to survive. In remote villages, harsh winters cut off access to hospitals, schools and even food supplies — leaving the most vulnerable with little more than faith and hope.
Your support can change this. A single donation can provide warmth, food and healthcare to those who face the impossible each winter. Together, we can lift families out of hardship and bring dignity back to communities who have suffered in silence for too long.
“The most beloved of people to Allah are those who bring the most benefit to others.”
— Prophet Muhammad ﷺ (al-Muʿjam al-Awsaṭ)

📚 Education & Development
With a literacy score of 85.4 (2017), Bagh ranks among the stronger districts in education across Azad Kashmir. Yet, rural schools face infrastructure gaps, limited resources and accessibility issues that hinder consistent quality learning.
⚠️ Challenges Facing Bagh District
Progress is visible, but the region’s rugged geography, severe winters and limited connectivity continue to affect daily life — especially in high-altitude villages.
Limited Healthcare
Remote villages lack clinics or hospitals, forcing long journeys for even basic medical needs.
Frequent Road Closures
Heavy snow and landslides isolate communities for weeks during winter and monsoon.
Underdeveloped Infrastructure
Schools, water systems and sanitation facilities need significant upgrades in rural zones.
Low Income Levels
Families depend heavily on agriculture and remittances, leaving them economically fragile.
