Our hope is to use this effort to help some of the millions of at least half starved Pakistanis to afford
gaining a minimum level of subsistence. As well as the obvious hunger resulting from an empty
stomach, there is also the hidden hunger of micronutrient deficiencies which makes individuals
susceptible to infectious diseases while also impairing their physical and mental development. Please
PAKISTAN FOOD BANK 2013
The Lady Fatemah (AS) charitable Trust (LFT) based in the UK and the Madinatul Ilm Charitable Tru
(MICT) in Pakistan have together successfully completed a new project to provide food support to som
of Pakistan’s most impoverished families.
By end June 2013, we had successfully distributed food packs containing rations of high protein lentil
and rice to approximately 10 thousand families. This effort was driven by the ambition to enab
impoverished families to put sufficient food on their tables, not only during the month of ‘Ramadan’ bu
going forward too.
Towards this end, LFT has generously made an initial contribution of high protein lentils and vermicelli
worth approximately U$50,000.00. Through subsequent assistance, LFT provided financial assistance t
add ten thousand bags of high nutrition ‘Basmati’ rice, each weighing 2 kgs. In the coming year, we hop
to build up further on this vital project.

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS IN PROGRESS
MICT’s educational projects encompass all matters pertaining to education. MICT has provided support
vocational as well as formal education, regardless of age, gender, or location. During the period under revi

This included an expenditure of approximately Rupees 878,810.00 generously donated by LFT to finance a th

Additionally, a special training camp was held in Islamabad in continuation of the first such summer cam

Food parcels and handouts offer temporary respite from hunger. However, unless
people are given the means to lift themselves out of their impoverishment, temporary
aid will eventually run out leaving the recipients dependent upon further support.
MICT`s micro finance program has so far enabled more than 200 individuals across
Pakistan to stand on their own feet and support their families.
During the year under review, MICT actively continued to search for impoverished
individuals who were able and willing to use small grants for establishing businesses at
the grass roots. During the year under review, we selectively continued with this
program mainly in the northern parts of the Punjab province.

As part of our activities, MICT’s work seeks to support patients in need. In a country where
healthcare facilities are inadequate, patients in financial distress must cope with a variety of
challenges. Through our network of volunteers and staff members, MICT seeks to reach out to
patients in need of care and treatment. During the year under review, MICT disbursed more than
Rps 2.43 million to patients in need of financial assistance.
Notable among these cases was the case of Zehra Khatoon, an 11 year old who lost both of her arms
in a tragic accident. Through the generous support of LFT, MICT raised approximately one million
Rupees to facilitate the installation of a bionic arm. Today, Zehra Khatoon is back at school in her
native Gilgit-Baltistan region and adjusting to life at home.
