Zia Colony, with its destiny quivered and with its faith solaced has had its fair share of bad draughts. However, there’s always a silver lining in a dark cloud. In Zia’s case, that silver lining is HOPE – An NGO in Pakistan. HOPE has been a token of selflessness since its inception. A school along with a hospital, established at Zia. Zia always, being under-privileged and idyllic in nature is now on the route to advancement because of the noble work done by HOPE and its donors.
While arranging Iftar dinners for various HOPE schools, the
school in Zia was not forgotten and an Iftar party was also arranged at Zia
Hospital for the students and staff of HOPE Zia School as well as the staff of
HOPE Zia Hospital. The evening was filled with ecstasy. An approximate of 280
people were present, which included a hefty number of children and staff
members. These people were none other than the beneficiaries of the magnanimity
of HOPE
The Iftar party was organized under the surveillance of Dr.Mubina Agboatwalla– A Child
Specialist in Karachi and chairperson of HOPE.
During the Iftar students, who are enrolled in Zia Formal
School, started their iftar in an enchanted manner, the joy on the faces of the
HOPE helpers was priceless. What for most of us is a routine iftar, turned out
to be a festival for them. The delight on the faces of those children proved
that they are extremely happy with the Iftar arranged by HOPE – A Health NGO in Pakistan.
The iftar dinner was followed by distribution of Eid clothes,
which further increased their happiness and excitement. The children were
really eager to receive the Eid clothes, as they belong to the families who can
hardly afford new clothes for any occasion. Eventually, the evening had to come
to an end. But what came out of it, “their happiness” which was priceless. What
were before iftar, scrawny faces with eyes sucked deep into their sockets, were
now faces filled with ecstasy and complacency.
All of this has to be credited to HOPE and its donors.
