At Silver Jubilee Development Agency (SJDA), we are guided by a deep commitment to serving humanity and uplifting the socio-economic conditions of marginalized and vulnerable communities. Since our inception as a not-for-profit company, our focus has remained steadfast on creating sustainable pathways out of poverty through education, skills development, and enterprise support.

SJDA’s work is rooted in the belief that every individual, regardless of circumstance, possesses the potential to lead a dignified and productive life. Through carefully designed training programmes, financial assistance, and community-based development initiatives, we strive to empower orphans, widows, the destitute, and other disadvantaged individuals. Our interventions in agriculture, micro-trade, and small business development are designed not only to provide immediate support, but also to foster long-term self-reliance and economic independence.

We take pride in our accreditation by the Pakistan Centre of Philanthropy (PCP), a certification body designated by the Federal Board of Revenue and registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan. This accreditation reflects our commitment to transparency, accountability, and the effective utilisation of philanthropic resources, and reinforces the trust placed in us by our donors, partners, and beneficiaries.

Looking ahead, our vision remains clear: to promote the socio-economic advancement of marginalized communities by creating inclusive and dignified opportunities for growth and development. With the continued support of our stakeholders, dedicated staff, and partners, SJDA remains resolute in its mission to enable individuals and communities to reach their fullest potential and achieve an improved quality of life.
