Qurban Ali (Late)
The patron of this institution. Mr. Qurban Ali took upon himself a task of educating the poor and the needy in 1980 and since then he has been successful in his mission. Under his leadership and management this school has proved to be one of the best in Lahore. His firm belief that educating the girls leads to a better family life can be seen among the families who are benefited from the institution. He was a man of formidable accomplishments who sacrificed his life for others. He converted the institution into Qurban & Surraya Educational Trust in 1993 and gave up all his assets to the trust. Since then the schools and college has been running under the trust.
Sadly he passed away in 2017 but his mission and spirit lives on like his name ‘Qurban’ which means sacrifice. May Allah grant him the highest rank in heaven! Ameen!
