Let’s save the legacy

This refers to the article, ‘Save the Edhi Foundation’ (Nov 5), by Zaigham Khan. Philanthropy is appreciated throughout the world. This is why a lot of people came forward to give donations to the foundation. Around 1800 ambulances registered under the name of the foundation are being operated across the country. In 2010, when the country faced massive flood destruction, the people of the country donated Rs140 billion to the Edhi Foundation.

The Edhi Foundation is not just an institution, but it is a phenomenon that has worked for the poor and needy people in disasters and emergencies. Let’s make an effort to save the foundation and make it prosperous again. It has given a positive image of Pakistan in the global world. It is now the country’s responsibility to pay back for Edhi’s selflessness.
