HOPE’S DISTRIBUTION OF IFTAR AND COOKED FOOD AMONG NEEDY

 Occasionally, a small deed can have a profound impact on someone else's life. Philanthropy doesn't always involve donating extravagant and large gifts to those in need; rather, it can mean catering to their fundamental necessities, like supplying essential food items. The most effective approach to delivering food to the community is by bringing it directly to their homes.

HOPE PROMOTES THE PRACTICE OF TOILET HYGIENE AND PERSONAL SANITATION AT LINK ROAD

 

Proper toilet and sanitation are crucial for public health, preventing the spread of diseases, and improving overall well-being, as they ensure safe disposal of waste and promote hygiene.

Last week the team member of HOPE – A Health NGO in Pakistan visited its toilets, constructed at Ghaghar Kalmati, Ghulam Faqeer Goth, Link Road  and Karim Baksh Goth, Link Road. The purpose of the visit was to check the condition and functionality of these bathrooms. Because along with the construction of new toilets, their maintenance and cleanliness are also important, since these toilets facilitate 100s of families in these villages as well as the neighbouring villages. 

Villagers claim these toilets have solved many problems. Alongside these there are also many handpumps installed by HOPE – An NGO in Pakistan, where villagers are provided with clean, pure water. These toilets are constructed on a 5x5 sq foot.

Furthermore, HOPE promoted the importance of personal hygiene and proper disposal of waste, in order to avoid diseases and other health issues. 

Maintaining community cleanliness along with access to safe water and effective waste disposal saves lives. In addition to safeguarding young children, community and environmental sanitation lowers the incidence of illness for all. Healthy families are more productive. Children can attend school more often instead of needing time to recover from sickness.

Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla – A Child Specialist in Karachi, does her level best to ensure that every community impacted by HOPE has access to toilets and handpumps. This enables residents to easily obtain clean drinking water and proper sanitation.

STUDENTS OF AKUH VISIT HOPE HOSPITAL

A large population residing in rural areas, do not have access to proper care and treatments in the hour of their need. Elderly people, pregnant women, neonatals, persons with chronic illness residing in a distant location from a hospital are always at high risk. Community health system has a large demand throughout Pakistan.

Looking at such needs of the communities. HOPE – A Health NGO in Pakistan, has established several Hospitals, Mobile Health Clinics and MCH Centres (Mother and Child Health Care Centres) throughout Pakistan.

The dedication and ambition of HOPE has attracted some attention of individuals as well as organizations. One of which is Aga Khan University Hospital. The struggle of HOPE sparked a dash of motivation among the students of AKUH.  The Students visited HOPE General Hospital & Community Centre on, Thursday 20^th February 2025.  HOPE gave the students a brief over their projects and activities they are involved in and how the deprived communities have benefited though this.

Furthermore, being a medical student, they pondered over the importance of basic health care, which is lacking in such rural areas and how HOPE – An NGO in Pakistan makes days and nights one to serve these communities.   This is one of the reasons why these students chose to visit HOPE Hospital and its Community Centre. 

Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla – A Child Specialist in Karachi, highly encourages individuals as well as organizations to support them in this cause. The overwhelming deeds along with the tireless efforts of HOPE, have always been worth admiring. The acknowledgement and appreciation of our work boosts up our team’s motivation level committing them to put in even greater effort in doing so.
