HOPE’s Ration Distribution To Flood Affectees Of Muzaffargarh.

Two weeks of  hectic  preparation resulted finally in the departure of HOPE’s team to Muzaffargarh, by road, on Oct 09,2014.  Before embarking on a grueling non-stop journey of  fourteen hours HOPE’s  team  made  absolutely sure that all supplies including medicines were in order and properly placed on the trucks for easy and systematic unloading and eventual distribution amongst the  needy flood affectees.

In keeping with its goals and traditions,  HOPE, an NGO in Pakistan,  with the assistance of  its supporters made this whole-hearted, meaningful effort of going all the way from Karachi to distribute much needed ration and supplies to poor and needy families of Muzzafargarh, devasted in the recent floods and without any means of sustenanace. With a formal school already in existence in Muzaffargarh, HOPE was in a much better position to control and regulate the distribution of relief goods that was  brought in from Karachi.


All supplies were individually packed with dry food such as wheat flour, sugar, pulses, dry milk and cooking oil etc. Medical supplies were transported separately.


 In preparation of this important event HOPE a health oriented NGO in Pakistan,  with the help of its numerous generous supporters had gathered together a very substantial quantity of rations and medical supplies, enough to last each  recipient displaced family till their  safe return home and  their full rehabilitation. On reaching Muzaffargarh, two areas, already identified as more seriously damaged by the floods, were selected for setting up camps for orderly distribution of the  relief goods and rations. The recipients were grateful for the relief rations  they received and also for much needed  medicines and medical help that was dispensed to them.



HOPE’s chairperson, Dr Mubina Agboatwalla, child specialist in Karachi, has always been the guiding force in organizing and implementing such relief activities with great success. Dr Mubina Agboatwalla, child specialist in Karachi, personally participated in the relief efforts and in this case too, she  travelled all the way to the rural areas of Muzaffargarh to ensure that the relief activity is carried out with efficiency and maximum number of flood affectees are benefitted.
