Anniversary Celebrations
Al-Mustafa Thalassemia Unit's Anniversary is celebrated yearly with a big bash, and all the children and their families celebrate and enjoy it together. This year, the venue was Askari Amusement Park. The kids went crazy with its colourful, crazy rides and festive vibe.
Governor House Visit
The Governor House of Sindh is one of Pakistan's most beautiful historic buildings. Everyone wishes to visit this building at least once in their lives. The Governor of Sindh, Mr Tessori, shows extra love and care towards those in need, especially the children. He frequently invites different groups of children for dinner or lunch at the Governor's House. Our thalassemia family also got an invitation for dinner, and the children were ecstatic. Visiting the most prestigious state house in the province as a guest was no less than an honour. It boosted their confidence and made them feel important. Such events are a great source of increasing hope and positively affect our children's overall health.
