Samsung Electronics,
the global technology leader has collaborated with SOS Childrens’ Villages, for
the construction of Smart-classes in 9 major cities, to uplift the standard of
education in under privilege communities. The Samsung Smart class at SOS
Hermann Gmeiner School has been established in the SOS Village at Ferozepur
road, Lahore.
SOS Childrens’
Villages have been selected to manage these smart-classes at strategic
locations, due to their high credibility and performance in providing superior
quality education, accommodation and a healthy environment to nurture the
inherent talents among the deprived segments, especially the orphans.

Village with qualified teachers, in accordance with high academic standards, to
achieve the defined objectives, while ensuring complete transparency. Hence, free
education is being provided to thousands of deserving and under privilege students.
