OVERVIEW: The Raghib Foundation supports the Pakistani community, education and youth and global organizations.
IP TAKE: The foundation keeps a low public profile, which limits information available on its grantmaking priorities and activities.
PROFILE: Established in 2009, the Raghib Foundation was founded by tech mogul Muhammad Raghib Hussain. While the foundation lacks transparency and does not maintain a website, tax filings suggest that the Raghib Foundation supports the Pakistani community, education and global organizations.
