About BRACE
BRACE – Empowering Communities is a non-profit, community-oriented organization established on the principle that meaningful change begins from within. The name “BRACE,” a standalone English noun, was chosen with intent — it reflects our mission to support communities in facing difficult challenges, fostering resilience, and standing together for collective progress.
Founded by a group of committed civic-minded individuals under the leadership of Tahir Nihad Bajwa, BRACE is dedicated to addressing structural gaps in community awareness and access to services — particularly in urban residential settings, where residents often face social, legal, and environmental challenges without effective support.
Guided by the values of transparency, equity, and empowerment, BRACE does not merely advocate for change — it prepares communities to embrace it, through lawful engagement, collaborative action, and a steadfast commitment to the public good.
