LUMS' Initiative...
Relief Work Initiation at LUMS
Pakistan has suffered from its worst ever natural disaster. With thousands dead, an unprecedented number homeless and injured, it is time to play our part in helping the victims. LUMS provides its students body a rather unique platform for organizing efforts of this sort. Collectively, the LUMS student body and alumni can be considered very fortunate and resourceful people of this country. At times like these, if we don't give to the nation, no one ever will.
The preliminary agenda is to devise viable strategies for working towards funds collection. After considering the responses from instructors and several students, the immediate focus should be on monetary support for relief operations. We will definitely move on to commodity-based relief which will include essential medical supplies, food, cloth items etc. Also, we're already in contact with the major relief organizations like EDHI, Islamic Relief and Red Cross International which provide very reliable and effective channels for disbursement of our funds.
InshAllah, we will be reaching out to the general population of Lahore - and to make this drive effective we are foreseeing considerable issues of protocol in order to make sure that the operation is viewed as genuine and concrete by those who are willing to step forward.
Lastly, we'd like invite all sorts of ideas and suggestions from people who are willing to play their part in this noble cause and more importantly, we'd like to encourage everyone to tap into their network of resources to augment any support to this operation.
