There are no words to stress on the importance of a proper diet when children are growing up.
However, while we go on with our daily lives, we tend to overlook the plight of many who can’t even afford a decent meal.
Fatima Memorial Hospital has been running the NUR Foundation Schools through its community outreach program in the outskirts of Lahore and in Southern Punjab. Currently, there are 1850 students studying in the NUR Foundation schools who come from impoverished backgrounds and their parents can’t even afford basic necessities of life and education becomes a Secondary concern.
The schools make it a point to provide a new set of uniform each year along with books so a child continuously studies. Recently a program to provide lunch meals weekly was initiated for not only their nutritional growth but also for them to come together each week and feel a sense of companionship, boast morale and give them the strength to move forward together.
Seeing that twinkle in their eyes, their smiles is more than enough reason to continue with the program but we need your support and as it grows we hope to provide these children lunch meals on a daily basis.
Please donate generously and keep them smiling.
