Spreading hope in Badin District.

Despondent surroundings, Miserable faces, threadbare clothes and shabby furniture such are the situation of underprivileged residents of Badin.  But on the horizon which has never looked darker, there lies some ray of HOPE. The major causes of poverty in those areas are over-population, joblessness, uneven distribution of wealth, slow industrial growth, rise in the cost of living, etc. Poverty has lead to many social and economic problems.

The depressed feelings of the kids were heart-breaking. Those kids who should be enjoying care-free innocent lives are deprived of their comfort and compelled to look after their younger brothers and sisters. They seem precocious and already mature at such a young age. They have understood the harsh realities of lives in such a brutal fashion.

But volunteers of HOPE stand by their vow to aid their brethren in the hour of need. After the devastations of flood in Pakistan, HOPE built several shelter homes in Badin in order to improve the living conditions of the residents. The folks living in the area are in a pitiable state with improvements in their lives after HOPE installed a water pump in the area which ensured the supply of clean water to the populace of the area and helps in preventing the various diseases which widely spreads in the area due to unclean water.  HOPE vigilance team visit Badin every month to monitor the projects and work in Badin. The team interact with the locals and discuss the issues they are facing.

Attempts of HOPE to support these needy citizens should be lauded. There is no doubt that life is harsh for them. But there is still a bright beam of optimism left, which is the philanthropic spirit of Pakistani people that they stood by their brothers during flood and help the effectees continue to improve their post flood lives. These people have the right to enjoy the revelries of life and HOPE is tirelessly working to achieve that objective.
