“BRINGING HEALTH & HOPE, ONE LIFE AT A TIME“

The Poverty & Suffering of The Donkey Cart Owner
The girl on the cart had also been brought in from a neighboring village. The unassuming owner of the donkey cart did not have much to look forward to in life…

Poverty, Hygiene & Health go Hand-In-Glove
Sometimes it becomes difficult to fathom the depth of crisis into which humanity has fallen especially where health and well-being are concerned…
MISSION
Our mission is to provide free healthcare facilities to underprivileged children in Pakistan, who otherwise lack access to medical care. We believe that every child deserves the right to basic healthcare services, and we are committed to improving the health and well-being of the most vulnerable members of our community. We have extended our medical aid to facilitate ailing adults from these households as part of the culture of inclusiveness.
VISION
Our vision is to create a world where every child has access to high-quality healthcare services, regardless of their socioeconomic status. We believe that by providing free medical facilities to underprivileged children in Pakistan, we can make a significant impact on the health and well-being of future generations. We aim to become a leading provider of free healthcare services to children in need and to inspire others to join our cause. Since a child cannot remain fit and healthy if the care-giver is ill, thus we extended the circle of help to encompass accompanying mothers and ailing fathers to facilitate households as a whole and the ever-growing community.

Schole International Academy visit on World Kindness Day

When poverty leaves no choice: It’s either medicine or food
Child Health Foundation comes in to save a life when a patient expresses her helplessness by proclaiming, “I can hardly afford the Re. 10 token and if I would need to buy a medicine from outside, the family would have no food.” This is the plight of the poor patient today. This recent statement by a mother urges us, the donors, to reflect on buying scarce medicines and those which we would readily buy for our children and encourages us to donate medicines in kind. Please join hands to buy even a few medicines on a monthly basis as the best good deed on your part.

Celebrating 36 Years of dedicated service for a healthier nation
As years melt past with astronomic speed, on looking back on all the years the members remained a part of Child Health Foundation and kept playing their part in the unfolding of the grand master plan of God, be it big or as small as the bird carrying a drop of water in its beak to cool the fire on Ibrahim (AS), may our striving and thought be counted by Allah and make our Book of Deeds weighty in the eyes of God. May we be given our Books in our right hand. May Allah accept our efforts. CHF has been especially gifted for having members with a burning passion for it and sincerity of intention.

A meet-and-greet of members with teachers and students of Schole International Academy

Ramadan Kareem
We look forward to Ramadan 2024 with the hope that Child Health Foundation remains at the centre-stage of your charity. Where caring is giving….

Be the hand that gives this Ramadan
Abu Umamah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said,” O son of Adam, to offer your surplus in charity is better for you, and to withhold it is evil for you, yet there is no blame to keep what is needed. Start by giving to your dependents, for the upper hand is better than the lower hand.” Source: Sahih Muslim 1036

The population in the locality belongs to the extremely poor working class who though deserving of the help show dignity and self-respect, a quality which rings true of the people living on the Baluchistan border who carry resilience and pride as a national symbol nurtured well over the centuries. As so well-quoted by one of our Founders Mr. Habib Ullah Shahab that ‘If you want good to come your way then start by imparting it.’ For more pictures please visit the gallery.
