ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday appealed to overseas Pakistanis to donate generously in the PM Relief Fund for Covid-19 to help the government cope with the ongoing health crisis in the country.
In a video message, the Prime Minister noted that the entire world was struggling against the Covid-19 pandemic, adding the lockdown had adversely affected the world economy, resulting in growing poverty across the globe, especially in developing countries like Pakistan. Urging the overseas Pakistanis to help their brethren in need, the Prime Minister said: “Donate generously and help the government win this war against corona”.
Earlier, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Overseas Pakistanis Zulfikhar Bukhari had met Khan to discuss the initiative. A special online portal has also been launched through which expats can easily donate up to $35 or more for Pakistan. The amount can be donated on a monthly basis as well.
Additionally, as a token of appreciation, the authorities have also decided to publish the names of donors on the website to encourage the spirit of generosity and national responsibility.For online donations, visit http://covid.ophrd.gov.pk/
