Distribution of Briyani and Iftar Boxes

Millions across Pakistan are suffering and deprived of the basic necessities of life. However, there is a silver lining on the darkening sky in the form of NGO’s like HOPE. HOPE – a health NGO in Pakistan, has been doing philanthropic activities since the beginning of Ramadan so that even the less privileged ones can enjoy the festivities of Ramadan and Eid.

So far, Team HOPE has distributed 624 Briyani Packets and 300 Iftar Boxes among its students studying in HOPE Formal and Home Schools as well as patients in Sindh Government Hospital. The details of the distribution are as follows:
·       
  •     On May 28th, 100 Briyani boxes were distributed among the patients at Sindh Government Hospital.
  •        On May 29th, 100 Briyani boxes were distributed among the students in Bhattaiyabad.
  •        On May 30th, 100 Briyani boxes were distributed among the students in Link Road.
  •        On May 31st, 100 Iftar boxes were distributed among the students in Mujahid Colony.
  •        On June 1st, 100 Iftar boxes were distributed among the students in Gadap.
  •        On June 2nd, 100 Iftar boxes were distributed among the students in Sachal Goth.
  •       On June 3rd, 100 Briyani packets were distributed among the students in Bhens Colony.
  •       On June 4th, 124 Briyani packets were distributed among the students in Bilal Colony.
  •       On June 5th, 100 Briyani packets were distributed in Zia Colony.




The team will continue to distribute Iftar and Briyani boxes till the end of Ramadan. The children and patients are delighted to receive the boxes as they belong to the low-income class who cannot afford to enjoy eating a good Iftar like we do. Seeing the innocent smiles on the faces of the children is extremely gratifying and it affirms our belief that all the efforts, the hassle, the obstacles are worth going through just to see a smile on the faces of these children who can’t afford to enjoy the festivity of Ramadan and Eid to its fullest. These activities are carried out under the supervision of Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla - a child specialist in Karachi who is the person behind HOPE – an NGO in Pakistan.
