Every year on the month of September a great Catholic festival “fair of Mother Mary” is held near the district of Shekhupura. There the people come to pray and celebrate a historical event. From 2007, every year we arrange our No Drugs project stall there. We not only arrange there stall but also aware the addicted peoples from different cities, town and villages. This year on September 3-6 2010 we also arranged our No Drugs stall about No Drugs. All staff workers were there to aware the general public and small kids too.                 
 In this famous festival people came from not only our country Pakistan but also from different countries. According to the Pakistani famous newspaper almost 6 lacs people came there. This is a great traditional event for Catholics. In this multitude of people is it not a very good chance to serve the people informing them that the drug addiction is a bad habit that leads the people towards slow motion death. It is a pain full effect that in such fairs there are always the people who are addicted and it gives a good chance to reach these people. Many of them promised us to leave this bad habit due to our awareness campaign.

Almost 52 pastors and social workers attended this conference who properly worked with PPCOP. It’s a great network of pastors and social workers all over the Punjab province.Comments of the participants, “it is the high need of time to save the young generation, because young generation is a back bone of our nation, country and especially our community. It’s not only a work of social people, doctors and NGOs; it’s a work of the entire nation, to save the youngsters.”
Many pastors were agreed to start work on their own places. We gave material to participants like Cassettes, CDs, Posters, Broachers and different books (Cross and switchblade) to provide awareness on their own places

Education development and skilled hands center Korien Gojra:

Picture
                Only 25 % of the children of the said area used to go in different schools in their surrounding Muslim areas and some to Gojra city about five miles.  When persecution came in August 2009, they left the school. Their houses were burnt down. They have to go through a miserable condition when there were no food, no necessity and moreover fear of losing life.  The moments they faced when they have to live under tents in graveyards. Their books and bags were burnt. But thanks to many God fearing churches and societies who helped them.

Children were all the day running for charity and chats. The school time looked end there. Meanwhile, I got a small amount of Rs. 27,000 from two PPC churches (Rev. Goerge A Rakha and Rev. Emmanuel Rafique). Different NGOs and churches were helping in different ways. I had the burden for education for the children. So we started an evening project, Community Education Development Center, to assist the depressed children academically. For the children who were studying in different schools but were stuck in, for the children those were not going to any school. This project encouraged the children and parents. We start it in crucial hours in october 2010. Now the Community Education Development & Skilled hands Center comprises on children from different schools and non-going children. Our step was to give motivation towards education and self-sustainability instead of charity. Thank God the results are wonderful. When the different groups visit they found a place to speak and teach among children.

                Our vision is to start such centers in different slums to raise and develop the unprivileged people. It is important to know when everything is out of routine we took a bold step of education to develop the most deprived children. Can you please stand with us to uphold and run this centre?

                We pray and wish that center should carry on perpetually. Can you please think on it?

  • No Drugs day care center FSD 

    When we give awareness the addicted people want to be admitted. We refer them to different treatment centers but for two reasons there is great need of Day Care Center. To prepare the addicts for treatment through counseling and first aid preparation.  When they come back from the treatment centers they go back into their old company and start again. There is great need of such place that may accept these people to give them a follow up and rehabilitate them socially, physiology and mentally. They may sit there to talk, read, share and be prepared to start a normal life in friendly circumstances. 

  • Street libraries

    We are running three street libraries to provide places for young generation especially for boys who cannot stay at home and need the shelters outside where they may spent their time in good activities, and not to be involved in Drugs and perversions. But these libraries are in rental shops, not a proper building. We need to update and renovate these libraries with new building, books, computers and other materials.
