ISLAMABAD, March 18: The number of orphan children being looked after by Pakistan Baitul Maal (PBM) has constantly been rising and presently 2,800 such children are being accommodated at its Sweet Homes established in different cities.
“Last year, there were only 1,500 orphans,” said Pakistan Baitul Maal (PBM) Chairman Zamarud Khan while talking to reporters at a press conference here on Sunday.
The PBM is financially supporting these poor children including their education, boarding, food, clothing and health care.
Baitul Maal has brought these children to the federal capital to participate in a week-long grand gala being organised at the Sports Complex in connection with Pakistan Day on March 23.
The mega event includes multiple activities like peace march, cultural shows, national songs and different games.
Mr Khan said the parliamentarians, ambassadors, dignitaries and other people have been invited to spend some time with these children to encourage them and make them return to the mainstream of the society.— Staff Reporter
