| Additional information |
SOS Children's Villages was founded in Austria in 1949 by Hermann Gmeiner, who lost his own mother at age five and built the organization around the concept of family-style group homes rather than institutional orphan care. Pakistan has hosted SOS villages since 1977, making the national chapter one of the older presences in South Asia. The 50th figure here marks the Pakistani program's own anniversary, not the global founding.
