Ramadan has always brought joy to
the Muslims, but unfortunately the case is not always true for people who are
deprived of basic needs. Dr.
Mubina Agboatwalla-A Child Specialist in Karachi not only understands
the importance of education for
the impoverished and how it can help create a positive impact in
improving their lives, she also takes care of the opportunities she can provide
to give them some moments to cherish specially during Ramadan. Under her
leadership, HOPE-An NGO in Pakistan
is making ends meet to share the bounties with the underprivileged communities
in every nook and corner of Pakistan. Muzaffargarh is one such far flung area
of Punjab where HOPE strives to achieve great heights of success by eradicating
illiteracy, poverty and hunger.
Being a deliverer of happiness and
joy to thousands of poverty-stricken Pakistanis, HOPE-An Educational NGO in Pakistan, arranged
Iftar for the students of HOPE Formal School, Muzaffargarh. The students were
seated in long rows for the iftar. Their excitement seemed to rise when a
variety of food items were served to them. HOPE pays particular attention on
the selection and preparation of the iftar items. Everything was closely
monitored to ensure that every child at the HOPE School Muzaffargarh was served
good quality food items. Dates, samosas, pakoras, jalebis, bananas and melons
were part of the menu which was served to them. Sherbet was also served to them
that added as the most desirable item on the table. The children enjoyed the
iftar party with their fellow students among happy chatters and giggles.
The iftar party was a long awaited
event for these underserved children of HOPE School Muzaffargarh, who were
extremely happy to open their fast together. Their happiness and level of
excitement escalated further when they were given Eid clothes which are
otherwise inaccessible for them like other necessities of life. The Eid clothes
were selected carefully to suit their taste and according to their size. Their
innocent faces glimmered when they went home with a contented heart.
HOPE, in collaboration with Human
Concern International (HCI) and HOPE USA organized this iftar party and Eid
clothes distribution in the last Ashra of Ramadan. Spreading smiles by
arranging iftars and distributing Eid gifts to the less fortunate ones is
indeed a great sense of satisfaction and source of immense pleasure for HOPE staff
as well as various philanthropists who contribute for this campaign.
