My First School Pakistan Limited
My First School Pakistan Limited is an Australian nonprofit organisation established in 2011 to support educational infrastructure and access in Pakistan. Focused on primary education, the organisation works to improve schooling conditions through classroom construction, teacher training, and student sponsorship[1][2][3].

History and operations
Founded by Andrea (last name unspecified), the organisation emerged after he witnessed educational challenges in Pakistan during a photography trip. Initial efforts included fundraising through photo exhibitions and donations, which financed classroom construction in existing schools[3][4]. By 2018, the charity had built nine classrooms across three schools, sponsored seven children for five-year educational support, and funded salaries for three teachers[3]. Additional initiatives included sending 24 teachers to a one-month training course, commissioning local carpenters to produce desks and benches, and repairing school infrastructure such as roofs and water systems[3].

Key programs

• Infrastructure development: Classroom construction, furniture production, and facility repairs, including water tank installations for clean water access[3].
• Teacher support: Professional development programs and salary funding to retain educators in underserved areas[3].
• Student sponsorship: Direct financial aid covering tuition and related costs for selected students[3].

Funding model
The organisation relies on donations and fundraising activities, including photo print sales from Andrea’s documentary work in Pakistan. A $20 donation typically funds 50 books for schools[3]. Registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC), it holds a NSW fundraising license (CFN/25161)[1][2].

Impact
As of 2018, My First School Pakistan Limited had directly improved educational access for hundreds of students and enhanced teaching quality through infrastructure and training investments[3]. Its work emphasizes long-term community development through education[4].
