Later, the event was preceded by a hi-tea was held in an STCF member’s residence in DHA. Like all previous similar events organized by STCF, the theme of this event was ‘festivities and colours’ and saw visitors draped in colourful
and lively dresses.
Speaking at the occasion, STCF Vice Chairperson Bushra Afzal pledged for more donations to help TCF forward its cause of reaching out to the lowest strata of society and enlightening young minds with the light of education.
The money raised from the event will go to TCF for educating children. STCF is a group of supporters who organize fundraising events, auctions and high-teas to raise funds for the cause. It is worth noting that an amount of Rs 12,000 supports the yearly educational expenses of a child enrolled in a TCF school.
