Iftar hosted for Rohingya refugees

Extending a helping hand to Rohingya Muslim refugees, a group of young professionals have teamed up this Ramzan to offer them iftar, serving them dishes like Haleem and Biryani during the holy month.

The group, comprising Mujtaba Askari, Khurram, Sadiq, Imran and Zeeshan, along with other volunteers, has organised two iftar parties for the refugees so far over the last two weekends, and plans to treat all the refugees with a Ramzan feast by the end of the holy month. “We are covering 150 families per week and calling them over to a community hall in that area and making arrangements for iftar followed by prayers and dinner,” said Mujtaba Askari from Helping Hand Foundation.
