Azad Jammu and Kashmir is a mountainous area comprising of various districts, located in the northern areas of Pakistan. This area is underdeveloped and in much need of proper health facilities. On the other hand, illiteracy is also prevalent here and if institutions exist, the harsh weather makes it impossible to reach there.
To help the deprived community of this region and extend a
helping hand towards the deserving community, HOPE
-An Educational NGO in Pakistan, has established formal and informal schools
in AJK. Some of the schools are till tenth grade while the others are primary schools.
On day 2 of the visit, the team visited the schools located
in Malsi, Gharidupatta at Muzaffarabad AJK, where approximately 200 students
are enrolled, respectively. The team distributed gifts, shoes, jeans,
toys, warm clothes, pencil case for students and handbags for the teachers
there.
Food items, biryani and juice boxes were also distributed
among the students and teachers there. The children were so excited and happy
to receive the distributed items; the smiles and happiness on their face was
clearly seen.
HOPE is ecstatic to see its students in the mountainous
regions of Kashmir studying despite the harsh weather conditions. Dr.Mubina Agboatwalla – A Child Specialist
in Karachi and a born philanthropist is of the view that providing
basic necessities to the underprivileged class is obligatory for those who have
the capacity to help.
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.
Hence, each year HOPE's team under the supervision of Dr. Mubina, visits the
schools in Kashmir and distributes food items as well as warm clothing to the
poor children studying there.
