The NGO’s Computer Literacy, Shelter & Welfare (NCLSW for short) is an established organization since 1992 and has been working in the fields of Literacy, Women & Child issues (health, basic rights, and advocacy) HR, Prisoners Welfare, Environment and Capacity Building. The Society initially chose Gujar Khan as its base station and launched the first of its kind community based network in this poverty stricken area. The program included the establishment of a school for deaf and dumb children, a center for women in crisis situation and a program for education of children in collaboration with the Punjab Government. The vision behind this whole program was to provide basic rights and basic health facilities to all the under-privileged persons and bring awareness about the plight of this neglected assortment and try and make conscious efforts to bring this desolate lot at par with their counterparts elsewhere in the country.

"Only when the last tree is cut; the last river is polluted and the last fish is caught; only then will they realize that you cannot eat money.". (Sioux Indian Wisdom)
Continuously worsening and all the more polluted environment is one of the core issues in the present day world, especially the third world. It poses a serious threat to an already burdened & burgeoning population. The gleam of rapid industrialization is quickly worn out when environmental pollution is taken in to account.
On top of this one of the most dangerous and ecosystem damaging elements are pesticides, whose free and irrational use is sadly causing a catastrophe yet to be felt fully in the very near future. With fresh water resources already depleting to alarming levels, the pesticide poisoning of underground water reservoirs represents a high time for authorities worldwide to wake up to the seriousness of the problem and act accordingly. |

“The women has her own place, and she can herself make a heaven of hell’". (John Molton)
The major concern of the Society has been the establishment of a wing for Women’s Welfare. This wing has been working in collaboration with many Governmental and Non-Governmental Organizations and has been involved in the setting up of a Women Crisis Center in Gujar Khan. This small initiative has been hailed and helped a great deal by the local population and ever since has been a joint effort of the community.
