Qatar Charity (QC) has signed a tri-party memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal (PBM), a charity and social welfare organisation, and Pakistan Institute of Prosthetics & Orthotic Science (PIPOS), to provide artificial limbs to persons with disabilities (PWDs) in Swat district, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.
The MoU was signed by Ameen Abdulrahaman, director of QC’s Pakistan office, Malik Zaheer Abbas Khokhar, managing director of PBM, and Dr Javed Ghani, co-ordinator of PIPOS.
Qatar Charity, through this MoU, aims to contribute to alleviating the suffering of the PWDs by providing them with artificial limbs and rehabilitation services.
Under the MoU, QC will provide funding to PIPOS to implement the artificial limb project for the benefit of 145 persons with disabilities, who have been identified by Pakistan Biat-ul-Mal.
Abdulrahaman, director of QC’s Pakistan office, said this project will bring a new ray of hope to the persons with disabilities, changing their life for the better.
He also indicated that Qatar Charity has been working with Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal for a long time in joint ventures for the betterment of the extremely vulnerable communities in Pakistan.
The managing director of Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal thanked Qatar Charity for extending support to provide the artificial limbs for the PWDs to ensure their mobility. He also noted that Bait-ul-Mal, in collaboration with QC, has previously provided artificial limbs to the PWDs in Balochistan Province to provide them with equal opportunities and integrate them into the community.
Dr Ghani said the PWDs will be provided with the best available artificial limbs, including bionic hands, under the supervision of an expert medical team, indicating that the project will allow them to live a better life, with no dependence on their families or relatives.
The MoU comes as part of Qatar Charity’s continued efforts to change the life of those with special needs for the better.
QC’s Pakistan office has earlier provided hearing aids, wheelchairs, sugar check kits for persons with special needs in the country, in addition to constructing toilets and providing financial assistance for them.
