April 30th was the day selected for a fund raising event organized byHOPE, a health and educational NGO in Pakistan.
Much preparation went into the organizing and advertisement of the whole event which culminated in an exceptionally successful fundraiser.
Many dignitaries including the ex-CEO of P&G Mr Saad Amanullah were welcomed at the venue. It turned out to be a very large gathering that came in to watch this comedy show titled “ Aisa Karogai Toh Kon Ayega ”
Mr Saad Amanullah opend the proceeding with a short speech covering P&G’s long association with HOPE and how HOPE had progressed over the past 15 years.
Dr Mubina Agboatwalla, Chairperson of HOPE and child specialist in Karachi, thanked Mr Amanullah and all friends of HOPE for their continued assistance and support and also outlined some of the on-going projects of HOPE, a health and educational NGO in Pakistan, for which continued continued support was requested.
Then the show began and with it a lot of laughter. The audience fully enjoyed the wit and comic antics of the performers and it all lasted till the close of the event around midnight. All the people left with happy faces and in very good spirits.
Dr Mubina Agboatwalla, Chairperson of HOPE and child specialist in Karachi, has been the driving force behind HOPE’s activities including the setting up of hospitals at Gurumandir, Zia Colony and in Thatta in rural Sindh – and in ensuring they are successfully and efficiently run – which has resulted in them being exceptionally popular in the areas where they have been established. She has also been the power behind setting up of semi-formal schools, formal and home schools across Pakistan – and has been single-minded in her mission of providing basic and secondary education to the needy.
