Dear HOPE Friends,
HOPE Team Delivers Biryani to 1,500 Needy People Across Pakistan
As part of our efforts towards reducing hunger and malnutrition in Pakistan, the HOPE field team regularly distributes cooked food to constituents in various underserved neighborhoods and villages throughout the country. Last week, we ramped up our outreach and served over 1,500 packets of biryani too all areas in which we operate in Pakistan .
Below is a collage representing our biryani distribution which took place between July 12 and July 15, 2024. Areas reached included our MCHCs in the Northern Areas (Garhi Habibullah and Mansehra, KPK along with Langarpura, Azad Kashmir) disadvantaged slum areas in Karachi, Sindh (Zia Colony and 100 Quarters), large poor districts outside of Karachi, Sindh (Thatta and Sujawal), and remote village regions within Sindh (Link Road in Ghaggar).

Food security is a growing need in Pakistan and around the world, especially after the Covid-19 pandemic triggered excessive inflation across many countries. In Pakistan, the aftermath of the 2022 Flood Crisis and political instability have further exacerbated the need to fight hunger amidst a rising poor population. In an effort to assuage the pressing situation, HOPE has incorporated two main ways by which we are directly combatting hunger in Pakistan:
Our Food Rations program is a donor-initiated idea which started off as a humble project to provide food essentials to 22 of our most needy families within the Karachi metropolitan area and has catapulted to become an established staple in our poverty alleviation portfolio. Alongside with the regular monthly distribution of food rations, we reinforce these food security efforts by serving cooked food such as biryani on various occasions throughout the year.
Many thanks for your continued support of our efforts to make a difference in the landscape of poverty within Pakistan!
Warm regards,
The HOPE USA, HOPE UK, and HOPE Pakistan Teams
