NGOs & Trusts

Building Accountability and Impact for Organizations that Drive Change

Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), Non-Profits, Charitable Trusts, and Foundations play a crucial role in addressing societal needs, promoting human development, and supporting vulnerable communities in Pakistan. However, with noble missions come heightened responsibilities — especially in terms of financial transparency, regulatory compliance, and donor accountability.
At Faisal Tauheed Rao & Co., Chartered Accountants, we specialize in providing tailored financial, audit, tax, and advisory services to NGOs and Trusts, helping them achieve their missions with integrity, efficiency, and full compliance with regulatory requirements.

We stand as your trusted partner, ensuring that your resources are maximized for impact, and your operations meet the highest standards of accountability.
