On 10 March, 2026, The Rural Development Foundation of Pakistan (RDF), in collaboration with Pak Aid Welfare Trust (PAWT), organized “Empowering Orphan Girls through Skills and Livelihoods.”
Through this initiative, orphan girls were provided with sewing machines, enabling them to learn practical skills and move towards a more independent and secure future. Iftar boxes were also distributed, sharing the spirit of compassion and support during the blessed month of Ramadan.
