HOPE Ensures an Enlightening Future for Abandoned Ones.

HOPE – a charity in Pakistan has a wide network of schools, vocational centers and hospitals across Pakistan. Besides providing free education and healthcare to the underprivileged, HOPE also cares about the ones who are left alone in this world. Many times, babies who are born in HOPE Hospitals are abandoned due to the death of mother or other personal reasons.

Recently, a beautiful baby girl was delivered in HOPE Hospital, Zia Colony unfortunate found abandoned. Hence, Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla – chairperson of HOPE, decided to keep the baby for adoption so that she may have a better future with the parents who can provide her all the necessities of life.
