The year 2024 brought various challenges for people worldwide, with increasing unemployment and rising inflation aggravating daily struggles for many families. However, amidst these difficulties, Al-Wahab Foundation (AWF) remained steadfast in its commitment to serving humanity as per the directions of Chairman Mufti Abdul Wahab. The contribution of our esteemed donors and the efforts infused by our dedicated team members and volunteers have made us achieve bigger and better in 2024. Here’s a glimpse of AWF’s 2024 Achievements into the impactful initiatives undertaken:
Beneficiaries: 12,730 individuals
Price hike and unemployment are increasing the risk of food deprivation on a large scale in different parts of the world. Several families, including children, struggle for food every day. Team AWF organises distribution of freshly cooked hot meals to address immediate nutritious needs ensuring no one stays empty stomach. In 2024, we provided cooked meals to 12,730 beneficiaries with the support of our donors.
Beneficiaries: 13,667 individuals
Our eye care project assists many individuals who cannot afford to get their eyesight treated due to a lack of resources. Guided by Chairman Mufti Abdul Wahab, Team AWF organises free eye care camps in numerous deprived areas of Karachi to help as many people as possible. Through these eye camps, the patients get treatment without any cost, and those who need cataract surgeries are then further referred for free surgical procedures. Team AWF offers pick-and-drop service for surgery patients and also provides them with nutritious meals during the whole process. Thanks to our donors, we gave the gift of sight to 13,667 beneficiaries last year.
Beneficiaries: 11,803
As a part of our Feed the Hungry Project, we also provide food packs containing necessities like flour, oil, sugar, lentils, rice, and other items sufficient to serve a family of six for the whole month. Recognizing the importance and need of this initiative, we distributed food packs in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Uganda, and Rohingya, reaching over 11,000 beneficiaries in 2024.
Mosques Built: 23
Beneficiaries: 2,300 Beneficiaries
A mosque serves as the central hub of a Muslim community, nurturing peace, tranquillity, and unity among its members. Many mosques are damaged and not maintained well following insufficient financial resources. Various deprived communities have these mosques located at long distances, making it difficult for them to offer congregational prayers. With the generous contributions of our donors, AWF constructed 23 mosques, providing safe spaces for the locals in distant villages of Pakistan. Explore our Build a Masjid Project page to learn more.
Beneficiaries: 31,832 individuals
Through our Qurbani project, we ensured the distribution of sacrificial meat to thousands who could not fulfil this obligation during Eid-ul-Adha.
