AN EVENING FILLED WITH ECSTASY AT HOPE GURUMANDIR HOSPITAL

 The Holy month 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 is making ends meet to share the bounties with the underprivileged communities in every nook and corner of Pakistan.

Being a deliverer of happiness and joy to thousands of poverty-stricken Pakistanis, HOPE - A Health NGO in Pakistan, arranged Iftar for the students of HOPE Home Schools throughout the rural areas of Karachi and urban slums.  The Iftar was held at HOPE Gurumandir Hospital, where 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 – An NGO in Pakistan, pays particular attention on the selection and preparation of the iftar items. Everything was closely monitored to ensure that every student was served good quality food items. Dates, samosas, pakoras, jalebis, bananas, rolls and patties were part of the menu which was served to them. Sharbet was also served to them which served as the most desirable item on the table. The Iftar was later followed by delicious biryani which was given to the students. The children enjoyed the iftar party with their fellow students among happy chatters and giggles.

Approximately 250 students enjoyed the iftarand dinner. The iftar was a long-awaited event for these underserved children of HOPE Home schools, who were extremely happy to open their fast together. The innocent smiles on the faces of the children were extremely gratifying and affirmed my belief that all the efforts, the hassle, the obstacles are worth going through just to see a smile on the faces of those underprivileged children.

HOPE ON THE MISSION TO FEED THE IMPOVERISHED

Communities residing in far flung areas across Sindh are indeed very poor and during Ramadan, HOPE -An NGO in Pakistan provides help to them in the form of food distribution. Recently in the underprivileged communities of the society; HOPE has distributed biryani packet among the children and the underprivileged families in different rural areas.

The biryani packets were distributed to a very large number of people, bringing joy and smiles to their faces. Such distribution of food by HOPE is conducted on a regular basis throughout the month of Ramadan, in rural slum areas and in the villages on the edge of the city. These people were delighted to receive the iftar boxes, as they belong to the low-income class who cannot afford to enjoy eating a good Iftar like we do.

HOPE-A Health NGO in Pakistan has been unrelentingly feeding hundreds of destitute people and children during the holy month of Ramadan as part of its Ramadan campaign since the past many years. HOPE manages to provide food for the lesser fortunate the community to feed the underserved.

Women, children and patients or handicapped individuals are usually deprived of the opportunities as they cannot go out and access food distributors in the presence of a large crowd. The smile on the faces of these children is priceless.

As a result of this prospect provided by HOPE has reached out to even a larger number of downtrodden communities during this Ramadan. Under the leadership of Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla-A Child Specialist in Karachi, HOPE gave them an opportunity to enjoy the sumptuous food that they could only dream of.
