The Patni Education Trust (formerly “Patni Education Committee”) was established in the year 1963, by the elders of Patni Sunnat Jamaat,Surat. It was formally registered as a charitable trust in the year 2006. Its primary objective at inception was to provide monetary help to the poor and needy students from within the Patni fraternity in the form of educational scholarships. The “Trust” has provided financial aid to hundreds of such students over the years, and helped shape many careers. Alhamdulillah.
Having begun at a very modest scale, the “Trust” has evolved, in over 50 years of its existence, into a body providing educational scholarships to school students as also to those pursuing higher professional education at university level. An average of more than 300 students avail of our (the trusts’) school fee scholarships annually and more than 70 students avail of college/university scholarships. Our annual budget for the academic year 2022-23 has already exceeded Rs.35 lakhs. We conduct an “Annual Prize Distribution Function” to honour and felicitate meritorious students.
Besides this the “Trust” has extended its activities to encourage and guide students to pursue higher education. We conduct “student motivation and career counselling” seminars and “exam training workshops” annually. Responses from students, parents and especially women in these activities are indeed encouraging.
Our records and surveys within the Jamaat reveal a new awakening and eagerness for higher education. Most students have an urge to pursue higher modern education in varied fields like medicine,engineering,IT and computer science,management,accounting etc. and make successful careers. All they need is encouragement, proper guidance and financial support to help them move ahead.
We, at the “Trust”, intend to provide all necessary forms of help to our students. Our role would extend from encouragement, motivation, mentoring and career guidance as also to provide financial help.
Bearing in mind the above facts we, the “Trust Managing Committee” appeal to you, to please donate generously to “The Patni Education Trust”. Especially during the holy month of Ramzan, we request you to kindly donate your Zakat funds to the maximum for the trust. Your donations will help shape careers, resulting in overall social, educational and economic upliftment of our community.The “Trust”also accepts Lillah donations.
Lillah donation schemes offered:
A memorial fund is established in honour of the donor or his/her relative. Donated amount is invested and income accruing from said investment is utilised for the Trusts’ activities.
Considering current cost of education,an average annual per capita cost per student has been calculated at being Rs.10,000 per each school student and Rs.25000 per each college/university student. Donors may adopt any number of students annually under this scheme. Donations in both-Lillah and Zakat forms will be accepted under this scheme.
Dear brethren, in the context of the present scenario, it is of prime importance that our students be qualified well enough to compete with the best, the world over. This segment is of prime importance and shall In-sha-Allah bring about a generational change and yield results in the long run.
We request you to please give due consideration to the “Trusts’” needs. You may contact us for further information. We would be pleased to liaise with your relatives here in India.
