Philanthropy has been a major part of the Pakistani culture since its independence in 1947. Historically, traditional businessmen have been contributing to community development projects. General public are also contributing for this cause and assisting the poor under both humanitarian as well as religious inspirations. The formal NGO sector however developed in the past couple of decades. Since the 1980s, NGO sector has witnessed considerable activity and growth in Pakistan.
Although government of Pakistan does not provide guidelines or directly monitor NGO activities, it is mandatory to register NGO with government department. Registration is generally under "Societies Registration Act of 1860" or "Voluntary social welfare agencies ordinance 1961". The guidelines for NGO operations and activities are generally provided by the donors or funding agencies. Quality control audits are also performed by the donors to ensue implementation of planned activities under the project. Even though the work done by the NGOs is for development and social uplift of local communities, there is almost no support provided by the federal or local government</code></em>
