All proceeds from tickets sales and auction of designers’ outfits, cricket bats and balls from the fundraising gala will go the relief and rehabilitation efforts in the flood affected regions of the country.
HUM Network believes in giving back to the society and has been at the forefront of providing relief to its fellow citizens by starting the HUMDard initiative in different regions of Sindh. Earlier, the network also arranged a telethon to raise funds for the flood affectees where all the employees of HUM Network donated their one-day salaries to the cause and has been dispatching relief packages on a regular basis to the flood affected areas of Sindh.
The recent floods across the country have caused devastation on an unimaginable scale and it will take years of hard work, dedication and collective efforts to mitigate the socio-economic implications of this overwhelming tragedy. In times such as these, we should all unite and offer collective help to the millions who have been affected by the devastating floods as the task is too big for any one person or organization.
