The Alkhidmat Foundation Women Wing has launched a three-day 'Gaza Packing Drive' to provide essential relief to women and children affected by the conflict in Gaza.
The drive, which began at the Alkhidmat Complex, has drawn participation from women volunteers from diverse backgrounds, including students from various educational institutions.
Led by Kulsoom Fatima Ranjha, President of Alkhidmat Foundation Women Wing Pakistan, the initiative aims to assemble essential supplies tailored to the specific needs of women and children in Gaza, including pregnancy kits, baby kits, and hygiene kits.
The drive seeks to convey the unwavering support of the Pakistani community to their Palestinian counterparts during these trying times.
Expressing solidarity with the oppressed victims in Gaza, Kulsoom Fatima Ranjha highlighted the dire situation faced by the Palestinian populace, particularly emphasizing the significant toll on women and children.
"Amidst the Israeli atrocities and bombings, a staggering 70 percent of the casualties are women and children, with approximately one lakh pregnant women in distress," remarked Ms. Ranjha.
Alkhidmat Foundation Pakistan has already dispatched 2080 tons of relief supplies valued at two and a half billion rupees to Gaza, demonstrating its steadfast commitment to aiding the afflicted.
The Gaza Packing Drive is another step in this direction, with the mother and child protection kits, along with other relief items, set to be dispatched to Karachi port for onward shipping to Gaza.
