Akash Javed
Akash Javed a 10 year student of Class 5 of St. John’s primary School (New Youhanabad) expressed his happiness by saying “We are very happy that our washrooms have been fixed as before when we used to come to school and whenever we had to defecate, it was very difficult for us to pass the time because of the bad condition of the washroom we would not go for defecation in the wash rooms and It was affecting our health. We are grateful to Caritas Pakistan for arranging washrooms for us”
Nauman David is 6 years old and is studying in class 3 at St. Teresa’s School. Nauman would often start crying loudly after a break due to defecation, but in no case was he ready to go to the washroom, because the washrooms were smelly, there was no water system and no washroom doors. Under the wash project of Caritas Pakistan Karachi, doors were installed here and the washrooms were cleaned. After which the children expressed happiness. Now Nauman is very happy and whenever he needs to defecate, he rushes to the washroom.
Along with the children, the management of St. Teresa’s School is also grateful to Caritas Pakistan, thanks to which the real problem of the children was solved.

Ishtiaq Gill
My name is Ishtiaq Gill I live in Shahbaz Goth and I am a member of DMC Shahbaz Goth. Due to the stormy rains of 2022, there has been a lot of damage due to flood water in Shahbaz Goth and its surroundings. During the rains, the members of DMC Shahbaz Goth went from door to door to inquire about the condition of the people. And the people whose houses were damaged, we were given plastic sheets by Caritas Pakistan Karachi, those sheets were given to those people whose houses were damaged, and in some houses the DMC members themselves went and installed the sheets.
Apart from this, Caritas Pakistan Karachi also provided us with mosquito nets, so that people are safe from malaria and dengue in during the rainy season, and when the drinking water became dirty due to flood water, Caritas Pakistan Karachi provided clean drinking water so that People should not suffer from stomach diseases by drinking dirty water. So, the members of DMC gave all these goods from door to door.
And those who were stuck in the flood water not only got out, but also went and helped some people and vehicles stuck on the super highway.
And all this became possible because Caritas Pakistan Karachi has trained us to do all these things and today, we can protect not only our own lives property but also the lives and property of others.
A Journey from difficulty to ease
In other words, “Shahbaz Goth” is count Karachi city, but the basic facilities of life like water, electricity, gas, etc. are not available here and people are living extremely backward life. Caritas Pakistan Karachi is here among the people through its various interventions.
Through its WASH project “Improving WASH facilities in COVID-19 affected communities of Pakistan”
, Caritas Pakistan Karachi spread awareness among the people here not only about health and hygiene.
In order to provide clean water to the people, Caritas Pakistan has installed hand pump to the people here.
Mr. Dilshad Ilyas (Wash Committee Member) is a resident of Shahbaz Goth who has been living here since the settlement of Shahbaz Goth. Describing the benefits of the installation of this hand pump, Mr. Dilshad said that before the installation of this hand pump, we were facing severe problems in getting water for our daily uses. We had to buy expensive water which we did not get easily. Sometimes we had to walk from a long distance to fetch water. Due to non-availability of water, we could not bathe often and we could not adopt the habit of frequent hand washing. Because of which the often children would have fallen ill and the cost of their treatment would have increased separately. He further said “In such a situation, under its WASH project, Caritas Pakistan not only promoted the principles of hygiene here, but also installed hand pumps here as a basic need of the people.”
Expressing his happiness, he said that thanks to Caritas Pakistan for this hand pump, we have been saved from many problems and the habit of frequent hand washing has also developed among the people here. Due to constant bathing, people here are now healthy.”
On behalf of his community, he thanked Caritas Pakistan Karachi and said that this hand pump is a precious gift to us from Caritas, which we will continue to take care by us.
