Carrying on the Legacy of EDHI
Edhi Foundation — the largest organizational set-up running in multidimensional areas in Pakistan modifies the catchphrase “Live and Let Live” by “Live and Help Live”, which means Edhi guides others that whilst passing the life, don’t let to live with hardships and difficulties, yet extend your every possible assistance to others, in case, any assistance is sought from you, to live with happiness and ease.
Edhi strongly believes in protecting basic human rights without any discrimination of color, caste, and creed. My religion is “service for humanity” that is spanned over 56 years, thus our efforts and services are greatly liked and commended by all schools of thought, across Pakistan and many parts of the world.
Edhi Foundation is having difficulties in raising funds
After the sad demise of Abdul Sattar Edhi, donations to Edhi Foundation have reduced to a large extent, which is causing hurdles in carrying out day to day relief activities and service to ailing humanity. So, it is our duty being Pakistani to nurture this foundation which has given so much to our country. Now, it is the time that we also put our efforts in upholding the mission of Edhi sb.
One of the major difficulties which is being faced by Edhi Foundation right now is the financial crisis. So, we have to do something to alleviate this problem. We can do a fundraising activity to raise funds which can then be transferred to Edhi Foundation. For this to be done effectively, we can brainstorm some ideas before implementing them so that we get to know about pros and cons of every possible solution before opting it.
Keeping all the above discussion, our group perform a brainstorming session after the Sundays session of Amal Academy. We came up with many ideas during this and after analyzing the available ideas on the table, we decided that:
- We can do a fundraising activity at Amal Campus
- We can do this activity individually
- Some members can also arrange a fundraising activity at some public places like
So after all this planning we move towards the implementation phase of our ideas. As all this discussion was happening at the Amal Campus, we decide to start this mission from the very cradle of these ideas. So we hurriedly prepared a donation box featuring a “Donation to Edhi Foundation” label. We then approached towards the faculty of Amal Academy to collect funds and yes we remember our very first donor was our own Program Manager Mam Zara. She praised our efforts and motivate us to carry forward. It was a very busy day in Amal Campus and lots of people were there due to which our donations were really good.

We also collect funds at our places but the experience were quite different from the Amal Campus as in Amal all were aware of our project but here we have to first make realize them of of our reliability, honesty and many more things. then every group member collect individually from there expected areas, one of our group member collect fund from her colony, she had great experience. At first place when she go in one of the house there was a lady who said that, I give directly to the people who were needy but then she convence her and give complete confident that your money goes to needy people. Then after that she collect fund from different houses.
Like this next two members of our group who lived in hostel they collect fund from their friends, in starting boys make fun of them and hooting but they took sabre-e-jameel and keep going its struggle. they collect fund. Collectively its a great experience of collecting fund. It is just an amazing feel for all of us. It is like peace of our soul.

By collecting funds we are so happy that we are contributing our efforts for those people and children who are orphan, widows and old people. by this money some of the lifes of people can be improve. And i suggest that as human we all should do some efforts for these people and should work for Edhi foundation because after Edhi sb its our responsibility to continued his chain of humanity.
