For a spectacular new beginning, everything marvelous must come to an end. Same is the case with 'friends of SOS' committee group. It is meant for a sacred cause, which is to bring joys in the lives of children of SOS village Multan. It boasts, the largest number of members in any committee group ever started in the city of saints. Members vary from  the youngest to oldest. From the most stylish people, to most religious ladies, everybody is a part of it and try to bring their own kind fun.

Last committee party held in May, before summer vacations was hosted by Farah Karim Khawaja, Sadia Dogar, Kiran Dodar, Shahama Shahd, Novaira Fahad, Anum Khichi and Aarfa. The venue was Ramada hotel. As two of the hosts, Sadia Dogar and Kiran Dogar are great religious scholars of Multan. They have studied and worked for Islamic teachings, their group agreed upon holding an Islamic lecture, to be conducted on the topic of 'the benefits of giving charity' and it was delivered by Sadia Dogar herself. In her usual, soft and kind tone, she delineated what holy prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him) instructed and what Quran has taught on the subject.

Later a quiz was also held on the topic, which was conducted by Farah Karim. She asked questions from the topic and attendees were given gifts on answering correctly. There was also a photo booth and the members went on to take selfies and pictures alongwith their friends and company. At the end a scrumptious lunch was served. In other words you can say, hostesses of the party, great food for soul, in shape of religious knowledge and great meal for the bellies. Hostesses extended their kind hospitality and  personally attended each and every guest.

With this party, the committee group came to an end and next party is scheduled in September, again to last for another year. Join in, be a contributor in this noble cause, meet the most happening, beautiful and kind souls, who are a part of this platform and party, not just for fun, but with a purpose.

Great work again dear friends. All those who run the cause of SOS and those who get together with them and make it a success.

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. MGM pool has always been, undoubtedly the biggest & the best in this city, with an excellent filtration plant to boast & an extremely dedicated team of military men as workers, for maintaining th...

Leading lady of Multan Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar

Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar is a name synonymous with women empowerment in entire South Punjab. She is a living proof of the saying, 'empowered women, empower other women'. She became a member of Majlis-e-shurra of Pakistan and served at that position from 1982 to 1985 and dedicated herself for the betterment of underprivileged women of South Punjab.  Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar was fully aware of the talents of the women of this area and knew how their skills were exploited at home and at work. She was determined to uplift and raise their standards of living, through education and trainings. She was among first people to ever demand a separate university for the girls of Multan and remained persistent about it.

Maria BB's dholki at Tehmina Munir's

Glimpses of the resplendent event at Tehmina Munir's house. SOS children's village Multan is a little wonderland. Where children are raised with all the love in the world. No blood relatives are required for the purpose, as SOS villages have their own family system and nurture a congenial environment. A village consists of several houses. Each house is an abode to ten children. Looked after by a lady, appointed as 'mother'. She is responsible for taking care of the household chores and of the children like a mother. In short, it is made sure, they receive the affection of sisters, brothers and a mother. If there are siblings residing in the village, it is ensured, they are housed together. So, they are not deprived of their blood relations as well. For the rest, the generous and kind 'friends of SOS' are always there to extend their loving gestures. The monthly committee party system is adopted to keep them actively involved in the life at SOS village and en...
