About us
Namal Knowledge City is one of the largest educational projects in Asia that will take center stage in redefining Pakistan’s knowledge trajectory. The first breakthrough event that marked its development happened in 2008 with the establishment of Namal University by Mr. Imran Khan. Today this haven of education is supporting students coming from 71 districts of the country. 97% of the students are on need and merit-based scholarships.
Mission
Friends of Namal USA is committed to supporting Namal University in Pakistan by providing talented students from rural areas with access to quality higher education. Our mission is to empower youth through scholarship programs, foster leadership, and uplift communities by building a network of resilient, self-reliant individuals who can drive positive change. Friends of Namal USA also serves as a platform for connecting Pakistani expatriates living in the USA, enabling them to channel their passion toward supporting higher education and contributing to Pakistan’s development. By encouraging professionals to share their knowledge and invest in the country’s future, we aim to break barriers through education and create a lasting impact across generations.
why have we chosen Mianwali?
A border district between the province of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Mianwali displays an interesting blend of cultures — Seven districts surround the region leading to a compound population of over 8 million people, for whom Namal University is the only higher education institution (within a 200km radius).
