WMO Rozgar Scheme by WMO Pakistan Chapter – Delivering Dignity of Life

by on 23 January 2021
 

The Rozgar initiative undertaken by WMO Pakistan Chapter firmly underlines our belief – “give a man a fish and you feed him for a day ; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”

The program achieves the objective of enabling the recipients to earn a livelihood, sustain their families, provide their children with an education and live with dignity.

Over the years, hundreds of auto rickshaws and thousands of sewing machines have been distributed under the Rozgar Scheme to the marginalized Memon families of Pakistan.

This year WMO aims to deliver 250 vehicles including auto rickshaws, motorcycles and motorcycle loaders to deserving families at an average cost of a $1000 (thousand dollars) per vehicle. But with a slight modification to the scheme of things.

This will be a Lillah project.

WMO expects the program to not only earn a livelihood for the recipients but we expect the donee to give back a fraction of his earnings to WMO. The funds received would be once again utilized to donate vehicles to other underprivileged members of the community thus making the program self sustaining and giving it the ability to reach out to a larger strata of the marginalized in Pakistan. More importantly the recipients would eventually become proud donors and the program would achieve the prime objective of delivering dignity of life.

We appeal to our brothers and sisters across the globe to donate towards this pertinent cause. The prevailing pandemic has thrust the poor deeper into poverty. Today, the World needs your generosity and compassion like never before. Time to step up to the plate for Humanity.
