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.

Residents living in remote regions throughout Karachi are undeniably in great need and strive to make ends meet, keeping this in mind HOPE - A Health NGO in Pakistan provides help to them in the form of cooked food distribution. Recently HOPE provided cooked food to the underprivileged communities residing at Bilal Colony, Bhitaiyabad and 100 Quarter, Korangi.  The team members of HOPE – An NGO in Pakistan, distributed biryani packets to the children and family’s members in these areas.








The members of these neighborhoods come from lower-income families who occasionally have the opportunity to enjoy such generous meals due to financial limitations. Therefore, upon receiving the biryani, one could observe the joy and happiness reflected in their eyes.  These activities are conducted under the supervision of Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla - AChild Specialist in Karachi, she personally looks into the selection of sites based upon the need for food distribution.

Approximately 500 plus biryani packets have been distributed in these underprivileged areas. This kind deed brought smiles on the faces of these children. HOPE continues to provide cooked food and ration to the needy communities throughout the month of Ramzan

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.
