SMT believes for a community to be able to become independent it requires good foundations; therefore, good academic education will produce professionals. These professionals will become assets for tomorrow. In view of this, SMT has started providing assistance to upgrade current schools in the given areas of NWFP, by providing financial funding, books and other educational material to the institutions. We currently sponsor and support 70 schools in Pakistan, Kashmir and West Africa, with a total number of more than 5,000 students, some resident whilst others just attending school during normal school hours. The Schools provide the students with secular education as well as Islamic education. We understand that in order to move along with this ever changing society it is vital to keep up with information and technology. With this in mind we have set up computer centres which provide students and local residents access to regular computer training.
