Thanks to your generous support, we were able to distribute 40 food kits to starving brick kiln families who had been out of work for some time due to heavy smog this Christmas season.
Several weeks ago, we shared the story of Norra, a brick kiln worker with three daughters and a very young baby boy. They were only eating bread with water once a day. Norra’s milk supply was very low to malnutrition, causing her baby to cry constantly. All of her children also needed new warm clothes.
While Norra and her family remain in bonded labor at a brick kiln due to a loan of $1570 USD, they have now received a food kit to sustain them for one month.
Thanks to additional donations, we also provided 25 families, including Norra’s, with clothes!
We’re so grateful for your generous support of our work, and we rejoice in the stories of so many lives changed last year. Thank you for your continued partnership with us to end the cycles of poverty trapping religious minorities in Pakistan.
