The Ahmad Family Charitable Foundation concentrates its giving on healthcare capacity-building and community development for Muslim and underserved communities, funding facility upgrades, medical training, and humanitarian assistance alongside targeted education support. Grants are largely international or for diaspora-linked institutions and include capital projects (building expansion, facility upgrades), clinical training, and scholarships/technology for schools. Their portfolio suggests a preference for practical, infrastructure-oriented grants that strengthen local service delivery.
A $1.301 million grant to King Edward College in Lahore for medical-facility upgrades is the clearest signal in Ahmad Family Charitable Foundation’s recent record: this funder backs practical infrastructure and service-delivery capacity, often in health and community settings. The foundation’s grants reach both Illinois and Pakistan, with support that includes building work, clinical training, humanitarian aid, educational assistance, and direct help for individuals. In Illinois, the foundation has funded the Carbondale Muslim Center for a building addition and remodeling, as well as assistance to individuals. In Pakistan, it has supported institutions tied to healthcare and education, including King Edward College, the College of Ophthalmology Allied V, Marusipur Government School, and Alam and Aulakh. Recent grants also show support for humanitarian services through Aghosh Alkhidmat USA and Fatima Ghazi Community Healthcare. The pattern points to a family foundation that moves between capital projects, capacity building, and in-time-of-need support rather than a single program area. Its giving extends to both organizations and individuals, with a mix of institutional grants and direct financial help.
Healthcare capacity is a central theme. The foundation gave $1,301,000 to King Edward College in Lahore for assistance to upgrade medical facilities, then followed with another $138,000 to the same institution for the same purpose in 2024. It also funded $104,000 to the College of Ophthalmology Allied V in Lahore for training for ophthalmic services. Education support appears in both school-based and individual forms. Marusipur Government School received $79,120 in 2023 and $24,000 in 2024 for scholarships and technology, while Hidaya Academy in Urbana, IL received $3,000 to provide educational assistance. The foundation also made $24,500 to Alam and Aulakh in Lahore for educational assistance to the poor. Humanitarian and relief-oriented grants are another thread. Aghosh Alkhidmat USA in Freehold, NJ received $58,600 for humanitarian services in 2025, and Fatima Ghazi Community Healthcare in Toba Tek Singh received $51,000 for humanitarian assistance.
Typical grants cluster around a median of $24,250, with a lower quartile of $3,000 and an upper quartile of $63,730. That spread reflects a mix of large capital or capacity-building awards and smaller individual or community grants. The foundation also appears to support some recipients more than once across multiple years: King Edward College, Carbondale Muslim Center, and Marusipur Government School each received grants in more than one year. It is a family foundation, and it funds individuals directly as well as organizations. No application process is described in the data provided.
