Ehsaas Ki Jeet, University of Lahore

The University of Lahore staff and students take off time from the university and volunteer their time, presence and logistics for the aid work. The University of Lahore (UOL) has the services of hundreds of student-volunteers for the execution of its aid plan. These students are young and energetic and can access unreachable far-flung areas in rajanpur our student volunteers are providing assistance to Pakistan army for reaching out to people through boats Unlike many NGOs, our volunteers do not ask for any compensation and work as philanthropists. This enables us to focus the efforts and 100 % of the funds for the relief work. This collective effort has made it possible for us to help the community in times of disaster. This is not the first time that UOL is helping the suffering people. We have played a constructive relief and rehabilitation role for 2005 earthquake victims in Balakot as well as for the IDPs of Swat. The rehabilitation and rebuilding role is still being carried out in those areas and UOL is supporting some schools as well as providing community health-care over there.
