Mesmerizing mountains, fast
flowing Rivers, streams and beautiful fruit trees, all together make Kashmir a
natural wonderland. But despite all this magnificence, the people of Kashmir
are deprived of a lot of blessings and rights that they deserve. As the
unemployment rate is very high in AJK, therefore, the underprivileged class
can’t afford to send their children to school. However, with the passion to
serve humanity, HOPE- an NGO in Pakistan reaches
out to all those who no one reaches out to and has established several schools
on different mountains of Kashmir. These schools are giving free and quality
education to the poor children who cannot even afford to have a sweater or a
single pair of socks to prevent themselves from cold even in extreme weather.
HOPE’s team visits and monitors
the working of these schools every year. The visits include distribution of
various gift items such as schoolbags, lunch boxes, stationery items, sweaters,
caps, and food items etc which encourage the children to be regular and make
them feel loved. The team under the leadership of Dr Mubina
Agboatwalla- child specialist in Karachi interacts with the students
and teachers to learn more about them.
On day one, the team visited the
schools located in Ghari duppta, Malsi and Dhanibaklan where currently 280
students are enrolled, altogether.
The
students did a very well performed welcome function for HOPE's team. After the
function, the children were shown the demonstration of how to use P&G
purifier water sachets. Cooler, buckets, P&G purifier water sachets were
distributed to ensure the provision of clean drinking water among the
community. Moreover, pants, sweaters, pencil box, lunch boxes ( juices, cake,
samosa, pakorey), Gift pack for teachers (warm shawl, safe guard soap, ariel
surf ) were also distributed.
HOPE- an educational NGO in Pakistan is proud to be spreading hope and education even on the top of mountains where no other NGO or government organization is working to help the people in need!
