PEL Partners with LUMS to Support Talented Youth through NOP
In line with its commitment to expanding access to higher education, Pak Elektron Limited (PEL) has partnered with LUMS to support the University’s National Outreach Programme (NOP). LUMS welcomed a delegation from PEL, including Syed Manzar Hasan, Executive Director and CFO; Mr. Ali Kamran, General Manager HR; Mr. Iftikhar Ahmad, Senior General Manager Sales; Mr. Arshad Ali, Manager HR; and Mr. Hassaan Sherwani, General Manager Marketing. The partnership was formalised through the signing of an MoU between Dr. Ali Cheema, Vice Chancellor, LUMS, and Syed Manzar Hasan.
This collaboration marks a significant step in making quality higher education accessible to talented students from underserved communities. By sponsoring the National Outreach Programme, PEL is helping to remove the financial barriers that often limit opportunities for high-achieving scholars.
“This generous contribution from PEL is both timely and deeply appreciated,” said Dr. Ali Cheema. “Amid ongoing economic challenges, our focus remains on sustainability,” he said.
Through this meaningful contribution, PEL is enabling education based on potential rather than financial circumstances, helping shape brighter futures.
Sharing PEL’s vision for broader social impact, Mr. Kamran noted, “We’ve recently expanded our focus to include CSR initiatives, and partnering with universities like LUMS enable us to create a meaningful impact.”
LUMS is grateful to PEL for their commitment to inclusive education and for investing in the potential of Pakistan’s future leaders.
