Karachi, May 27, 2025 — The Karachi Vocational Training Centre (KVTC) proudly hosted its Convocation Ceremony 2025, celebrating the achievements of its extraordinary graduates with distinguished guests in attendance, including Chief Minister Sindh Syed Murad Ali Shah and CEO of Indus Motor Company (IMC), Mr. Ali Asghar Jamali, who graced the event as Chief Guests. The event was further honored by the presence of the Consulate Generals of Japan, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates, reaffirming KVTC’s growing international recognition and support.
In a groundbreaking move under the Toyota CSR initiative Concern Beyond Cars, Mr. Ali Asghar Jamali announced a series of generous and unprecedented contributions aimed at empowering differently-abled youth in Pakistan:
- Rs. 500,000 each was awarded to eight KVTC para-athletes who represented Pakistan and achieved remarkable success at the 21st WATA International Championship held in Japan and Malaysia.
- Rs. 2.5 million each was granted to 10 newly graduated differently-abled (5 boys and 5 girls) to launch their entrepreneurs ventures — marking a first-of-its-kind initiative in Pakistan focused on entrepreneurship for differently-abled individuals.
- Employment opportunities at Indus Motor Company were extended to five newly graduated KVTC students, providing them a platform to become self-reliant and contribute meaningfully to the workforce.
Speaking at the ceremony, Mr. Jamali stated, “This is not just about financial aid, it’s about creating long-term, sustainable impact. Through ‘Concern Beyond Cars’, Toyota and IMC are proud to support the dreams and aspirations of these incredible young individuals who continue to inspire us all.”
Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah lauded KVTC’s tireless efforts in transforming lives through inclusive education and vocational training, highlighting the institution as a model of empowerment and social integration in Pakistan.
With over three decades of service, KVTC continues to provide holistic development opportunities for differently-abled individuals through tailored vocational training, sports, and rehabilitation. The 2025 Convocation stands as a testament to KVTC’s mission of enabling ability beyond disability.
