The NGO is involved in the socio-economic development activities, on a self-help and participatory basis, particularly in the areas of education, health, HIV/AIDS, against drugs and corruption, Poverty, against religious extremism, torture through multidisciplinary approach, peace, equality and social justice, environment, rural & agriculture development, and others with emphasis on child welfare, women & youth development, human rights, minority rights etc. The organization seeks to coordinate with the government and other donor agencies for social development in rural and urban areas of Sindh. SSWA is a dynamic platform for different religious and creeds for their better social protection and promotion of their civil rights.

Sahkar Social Welfare Association also aims to achieve the objectives from the social business initiative: Eradication of illiteracy: As Pakistan stands among those nations where the literacy rate hardly reaches fifty percent and the low-literacy rate is one of the main hurdles in the development of the country. Besides, the low-literacy is also causing the emergence of ill-taught and misguided youth who consequently become tools in the hands of terrorists. SSWA is strongly working against Religious extremism, ensuring qualitative education: Along with the primary goal to eradicate illiteracy, quality of education also counts. In Pakistan, three types of educational institutes are functioning: Governmental, Private, and Madarsahs (Religious Schools). The governmental schools are administered and funded by the government; the private schools are administered and financed by a group or an individual; and, the madarsahs (religious schools) are working by religious scholars. In spite of claims, the quality of education is still substandard. SSWA targets to uplift the quality of education in Pakistan. Providing employment: The network of school system also serves the purpose of providing employment. SSWA is also running the chapter of United Nations Global Compact in Larkana Sindh besides the social services.
