Our Story
It all started last winter when my mother decided to distribute basic food supplies to families in need before Ramadan. We informed a few families who lived in slums near our house about the donation and utilized an online platform to order food hampers.
News of the food hampers spread through the slums like rapid wildfire, and on the designated day, we were met with a sea of hopeful faces outside our house. The reality hit us hard – we had only ordered a handful of food hampers for a crowd in the hundreds.
Facing the dilemma of turning away so many needy individuals, I reluctantly informed the gathering that we had limited supplies. The crowd began handing me their ID cards, each bearing a handwritten phone number, a silent plea for assistance in the future. Amid the chaos, a realization struck me that the issue of food shortage in Pakistan was far more extensive than I had ever comprehended.
Days turned into weeks, and the stream of ID cards continued to pour in as I struggled to shake off the faces of disappointed people leaving my doorstep without the food hampers from my mind.
Then, the seed of an idea sprouted – the birth of “Fund a Kitchen” a non-profit organization fighting to make sure “No one sleeps hungry”.
