The atmosphere at friends of SOS party, for the month of February turned out to be totally vibrant. On 4th of February, Lahore Chatkhara Multan branch was brimming with Red and Black as this was the dress code suggested by the hosts, keeping Valentine's theme in mind.

Hostesses included the names of Layla Saqib, Dr. Huma Athar, Mrs. Naseem Raheem, Farrah Saqib, Filza Mumtaz, Wajiha Husnain, Ambreen Abbas, Hina Mansoor, Marium Ahmad and Hifza. Not to forget to consider Hania Shahid, a permanent hostess too, as she runs this committee group and owns the place, Lahore Chatkhara, Multan branch.

SOS team had arranged very informative activities for the event. A trivia round, which included a quiz about SOS and its functioning. For the purpose of acquiring this knowledge, members were provided links to the official website and facebook page SOS Children's Village Multan - Official . Ladies were requested to visit and prepare for answering.

Also, there were tokens of acknowledgement for few members, who remained actively involved in SOS, as the core group. Which included the names of Ayesha Najeeb, Sidra Bakhtawar, Saadia Yaqub, Fariha Munir, Rubina Arshad.

Rameen Anis, looked drop dead gorgeous in her stunning Red and Black outfit as she conducted the quiz and hosted the show with forever youthful and beautiful, Mahnaz Fareed. She first provided a brief introduction to the planned activities and then there was a great response, every time she asked a question. All those present at the occasion, amazed with their preparation. The atmosphere remained charged with excitement till its end.

There was also a special announcement about the nomination of new General secretary of SOS. Any member, who is not a board member of SOS but contributes towards the cause of SOS, is selected for the post. This year, Eesha Faisal has been appointed. Congratulations Eesha! We hope you are going to prove an asset for this noble cause. Wish you a great success.

Chairperson Friends of SOS, Mahnaz Fareed also addressed the gathering and thanked the hostesses and organisers for arranging this superb event. She also showed her gratitude to friends of SOS for their constant support and philanthropy.

Later came the turn of prize distribution. First, those associated with SOS were showered with admiration for their contributions and were presented tokens of acknowledgement. Followed by all those, who had answered the questions correctly. Members truly enjoyed this quiz as it was informative and also it brought gifts for majority of them. Well done, team SOS and hostesses of the party in particular. At the end, as is the tradition of Lahore Chatkhara, a superb feast of a hi-tea was served for them. We congratulate team SOS for organising another fabulous event and really admire the hostesses for their generosity.

For the party in March, an exciting new idea is introduced. There is going to be an auction of brand new designer clothes, gifted to SOS by renowned fashion designers. It is again, first of its kind activity for the natives of the city of saints. The highest bidder will get the clothes and money collected from that, will be used for arranging upcoming weddings of two girls from SOS village. Participation of all the members will be highly appreciated. Looking forward to it! Best of luck!

M.G.M. Swimming pool.

View of the domes of MGM bulding from inside the pool. The crystal clear blue water. Chairs lined up for the spectators. Little pool for the toddlers. Summer is finally here, although, the weather still turns unpredictable at times. But still, one feels like taking a dip in the cool, cool water of a crystal clear pool.  M.G.M (Multan Garrison Mess. Commonly known among  Multanis, by its' old name 'services club'), opens up, pool doors for all its' members every 15th of April. The pool is open air, so it works on seasonal basis. From April to September/ October (if weather allows it).  Last year, the pool remained open, only till May, after that, it was shut down for renovations & could not be reopened because of the 'dengue' scare.

Annual debates at SOS Herman Gmeiner school

Glimpses from the event When you first visit SOS Herman Gmeiner school Multan, you are amazed by its majestic architectural design, beautifully decorated class rooms, functional libraries, meticulously pruned playgrounds, clean walkways and glistening environment. You look at the well mannered, disciplined, full of smiles students, extremely efficient staff members, all this makes you believe that this must be a high end school. To be honest, it is equally great in all its standards.
