Introduction
Project Topi was founded in the fall of year 2000 by a group of volunteers from within the student body of Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute Of Engineering Sciences and Technology with the sole aim of bringing some positive change in the existing plight of school-going children in Topi. The vision behind the society was to show how sincere and dedicated efforts of a few people can inspire so many to join hands with them and make a valuable contribution in eradicating the social and economic disparity that lies on either sides of the gates of GIK institute. The very act of students taking time out of their hectic schedule in order to teach local students and provide them with the motivation and aspiration they lacked so much is a symbol of love and affection that helped to bridge the gap between two completely different social classes. Since its inception Project Topi has increased to an ever present and well respected society within the GIK institute. In these turmoil times Project Topi has always stood with affected people of man-made or natural calamities. Recent help to the Bajaur IDPs as well as Earthquake victims has been an example of the commitment and hardwork of team Project Topi. It is a symbol of hope that extends beyond the horizon of Topi and it's work is being appreciated by people all over Pakistan.
