01 - Name of Organization
The full name / registered name of organization is NEST Welfare
Organization
The abbreviation is NEST and its acronym is Noshaba Educational and
Social Welfare Trust.
02 - The People
NEST was established by a group compassionate people whose simple
objective is to serve humanity in the best of its abilities and motivated to
contributing their time, skills and energies in facilitating to empower the
socially disadvantaged and vulnerable communities
in Pakistan, irrespective of their caste, creed or religion by offering them the
means to progressively develop themselves.
03 - Type & Nature of Organization
NEST considers itself a Socio-Corporate NGO based organization. This means
that its revenues and funds raised will be funneled back into the mentioned
NGO towards the progressive welfare of the society. NEST will also be labeled
as an implementing organization which will design and deploy various
developmental projects with the financial and technical support of
international donors and other NGO Partners, including corporate and donor
agencies.
04 - Year of Establishment and Legal Status
NEST began its humble operations in 1955 with the help of the original late
founders family and friends but was established under registration No.
(Govt. Registration No. PCSW(S) 1894) in the year 2015 after the
demise of the original founder.
.
05 Vision
NEST envisions itself to become the worlds largest Socio-corporate
organization through a carefully research and well planned business model.
The NEST business model is an integration of many business and welfare
models coupled into a single framework, we call BIG or Business

Integration Group. The business of NEST is to create a successful,

sustainable and viable Glocal (not misspelled) society, under a single brand
name NEST. Hence all of NESTs Investments would have NEST placed as
the prefix in all of its businesses and projects, or will have the Powered by
Nest labelled to an acquired or existing business or project.
06 Mission
The NEST mission is to empower the impoverished by removing the barriers
that hamper social development. We dont believe that just feeding the poor
or rationing the impoverished can or will make a positive impact in the
development of a viable, sustainable society; rather it is better to help the
improvised and the poor learn to feed themselves and share this knowledge
along the positive impact chain of wellness. We aim to strive to provide
maximum opportunities to create this wellness chain.

07 The Organizational Structure

Nest will employ the matrix management structure for its entire lifetime
operations. The structure offers great flexibility in terms of decision making,
risk management, deployment and cross platform integration to perform
higher level operations, such as managing corporate and welfare operations

simultaneously and seamlessly.

A structure allows for better and quicker decision making with many projects
developed and deployed almost simultaneously as well as reducing overall
business costs to the minimum. The model allows cross platform operations
which are best known as modules. Each module once developed can be
reused over the entire platform thus reducing the overall cost of operations.
Simple as ABC.

08 Board Objectives
1. To harness the power of education by providing high quality foreign
learning to the socially disadvantaged children and their elders. The cost of
corporate high education is next to impossible for a poor man to even dream
of for his child/ren, which is a basic right for a nations peoples. We will unlock

door for anyone to come and study for virtually no cost. Hence the creation
of the NEST group of schools.
2. To provide a sustainable means Livelihood by offering interest free loans
based on a lifetime partnership basis. NEST will provide not just the business
loan but as well as the entire platform for anyone that will integrate or
associate itself with NEST BIG.
3. Provide Education with Special Focus on Girls Education (A girls branch)
4. Provide Education and business opportunities to Special or unable
individuals of society (A NEST school for the physically and mentally
challenged individuals)
5. Healthcare is of the core focus area of interest for NEST. Achieving to
provide medical diagnostics for free, a medical insurance scheme system to
cover all emergency costs will be one of the greatest success measures and
a continued challenge for NEST. Receiving good Medicaid is next to
impossible for a poor person which leads to dead and diseases and
disintegration of families. High medical cost in Pakistan is a nightmare even
for the middle class individuals leave aside good quality of medical services.
Every lifetime penny earned is lost to receiving Medicaid in Pakistan and yet
the masses are unable to afford a good medical treatment thus disabling the
fragment of society. For NEST this is a
continued challenge.
6. NEST will invest. NEST cannot only
depend on charities or fund raisers,
rather it will act as an investor in people
and other business enterprises. All
profits hence coming out of these
investments will be funneled back into
the welfare projects of NEST. Although
contributions made will be utilized for
various projects yet much of it will be
utilized to create a sustainable income
stream to be funneled back into NEST Welfare Organization.
7. Promote Environment Protection and Address Climate Change Issues
and create the awareness required to help keep the environment safe. This
will be done through very specialized public awareness messages using a
broad spectrum of marketing tools. Create the awareness for consuming
organic foods from organic farms and to work and collaborate with
international conservation agencies for related projects.

8. To create the NEST brand image as a socio-corporate Glocal

organization. Businesses that will not be part of the NEST (BIG) may be
provided a platform to help them increase sustainable sales by Chip
Contribution for every sale made by these firms. This approach will give
businesses the competitive edge to build a better business network by
collaborating with partners through the NEST (BIG) network. Promote the
concept of charity investment.
9. Support and strengthen the Civil law enforcing agencies (Police)
financially to motivate them to work with greater integrity and help their
families to enjoy equal or better life styles. Strengthening the police and
supporting their families will create a positive impact in their lives as well as
ours. The vision is to create a Police Welfare Fund Institution.
10. Providing opportunities to the minorities and the socially unwanted
individuals of society is of paramount importance in our cause as a positive
change be never happen until every individual of society is not taken into
consideration. They have a right to education, job opportunity and a good
living.
