4. July 2009 “THE NGO WORLD” (TNW) was initiated as an
online forum of NGO sector professionals for sharing
activities, knowledge, best practices, success stories,
case studies, job & training opportunities and
achievements. During floods Pakistan 2010 it also
started humanitarian operations and managing
development projects by getting registered as The NGO
World Foundation (briefly called TNW Foundation).
Now TNW joins hands with Government Functionaries,
Line Departments, INGOs, UN Agencies & other key Aid
agencies besides drawing its strength from
communities’ active involvement in need driven
development process through a participatory
development initiative & community based
interventions etc. Within the limits of available
resources TNW also respond to human sufferings in
emergency and disastrous situations anywhere all over
the Pakistan regardless race, gender, ethnicity, class,
location, religion, color, cultural diversity and social
background; with special focus in the areas where
massive population living below the poverty line”.

5. During the last two years TNW beneficiaries list
has exceeded 300,000. To reach this figure we
enjoyed generous support from our donor
organizations (Mainly Light House Association
from Turkey), individual philanthropists and
volunteers. While two years overview is being
launched I find it suitable occasion to extend my
best wishes and note of thanks to all concerned
stakeholders. Here I also appreciate my
colleagues and partners who always stood with
me and worked at their maximum potential for
the cause of humanity. During this period
government departments also were in best
coordination with us and their facilitation made
the task easy and effective. Above all, the
blessings from Allah SWT enabled me to execute
smoothly and safely. I am still looking for
continued taufiq from Allah SWT, cooperation
from colleagues’ guidance from seniors and
support from the government line departments
and trust from donors to lessen the sufferings of
neglected segments of the society.

18. District Layyah (UC: Kotla Haji Shah) floods 2010 destroyed 263
units of small scale household carpet industry putting livelihood of
1200 families under severe stress. In response, TNW successfully
completed the project of rebuilding 100 sheds along with
provision of other related facilities for selected (un-affording)
beneficiaries and restored the livelihood of 400 families.

20. During the heavy Floods 2010, Water
passing over submerged areas picked up an
unimaginable number of contaminants
including, but not limited to, dangerous
strains of bacteria and fecal matter from
animals. According the reports of WHO and
PCRWR 62% of the water samples were
found bacteriologicaly contaminated.
With support of WHO (World Health
Organization) TNW team took 250 water
samples from the affected areas of Layyah
and Muzaffargarh districts to assess the
biological contamination in drinking water.
On the identified locations of both districts
1000
Biosand Water Filters
were installed as a source to clean the
available water and make that fit for health
along with conducting awareness sessions
about need and use of safe drinking water.
20

while creating problem for 1225 boys & girls to avail
education facility at their door step.
TNW took the responsibility to rebuild these schools
and revive education journey of the students of far
off areas. Along with building other related facilities
like furniture for teacher & students, stationary and
bags were also provided

23. Victor Hugo says” “Do not ask the name of
the person who seeks a bed for the night. He
who is reluctant to give his name is the one
According to updated reports of NDMA Pakistan who most needs shelter”.
in floods disaster 1,744,471 houses were
damaged affecting population of 20,184,550. In
only Punjab province 497,700 houses were
damaged affecting 06 million people. In our
target districts like in Layyah, affected
population was 405,258 and in Muzaffargarh
affected population was 1,044,759.
TNW designed two separate projects, single room
and two rooms’ shelter.
Two Rooms Shelter: In Layyah district, these are
complete homes comprising of two bedrooms,
veranda, kitchen and bathroom. 30 Target
beneficiaries were most needy and vulnerable
families especially, shelter less widows, orphans,
disables or poor parents with large number of
children particularly girls.
Single Room Shelter: In this category TNW provided
single room construction material. 100 Affected
communities of districts Muzaffargarh were
benefited.
23
24. During the survey of shelter less
people (floods 2010) in UC Kotla Haji
Shah of district Layyah TNW team
identified a family headed by Mr. Allah
Dad, comprising of 22 members. Old
man with his three wives and 18
children was living in three separately
fixed tents and bearing severe winter.
TNW took initiative and constructed a
complete home for this vulnerable
family along with provision of
required WASH facilities.
Sobaywala was a village of UC kotla Haji shah of District Layyah
comprising of 500 families. During the devastating floods 2010 almost
half of the populations lost their house along with land due to erosion.
Affected families were living in borrowed homes of landlords where they
were continuously under mental and social stress especially women and
children were facing hardships. TNW identified such families and put
efforts to resettle them. The houses were built on a single shared location
(kukar wala) like a small village with other requirements especially
proper sewerage and arrangements for clean water. The name to this
small village is given as" Light House Village" because whole project
is funded by light House Association of our brother country Turkey
24
25. TNW initiatives in WASH sector in flood affected
areas.
Latrines and Hand Pumps: In district Layyah, 22
permanent latrines with essential sanitation were
constructed in those schools which were missing
such facilities. Hand pumps were also installed in
these schools. These facilities were helpful to the
poor young students to have proper sanitation and
drinking water source. In Basti Light House Layyah,
TNW built 30 latrines and laid underground proper
low cost sanitation system.
Awareness Raising: Our WASH team continuously
remained active in raising awareness about proper
health, hygiene and sanitation among the illiterate
affected communities. Purpose was to keep these
people safe from diseases. TNW in collaboration
with National Commission for Human Development
(NCHD) established Adult Literacy Centers in
khanewal and Layyah districts. 175 female learners
were enrolled to learn reading and writing skills
Free Health Services: During and after the floods
affected people especially women and children face
serious health issues. It was routine activity of TNW
to hold medical camps in flood areas and provide
facility of free check up & free medicines to the
poor. Thousands patients cases were treated for
different types of diseases.
Psycho Social Care to Affected People: In Layyah
TNW with support of two organizations “HANDS”
and “Basic Need” completed a pilot project of
providing psycho social care to the 100 mentally ill
people especially due to stress of disaster.
Medicine from DWW Turkey: Doctors Worldwide
(Turkey) sent us a huge consignment of medicines
for flood affected people. These medicines reached
thousands of poor affected patients through
professional volunteers of PIMA (Pakistan Islamic
Medical Association).
25
26. Support for Livestock Farmers: Rajanpur: TNW distributed
fodder seed for livestock farmers of Rajanpur. Seed of multi-cut
grass (SSG) for 2000 acres is distributed among 1860 flood
affected small livestock farmers.
Wheat Flour Distribution: During floods 2010, affected families
lost their stored wheat. As wheat flour is main food for the
affected people so it was big nutritional problem for them to face.
Keeping in view the fact TNW distributed 15000 KG of wheat
flour among 750 affected families
Sharing Eid Greetings: Eid is a Muslim festival that is celebrated
all over the world. TNW team celebrates eid days among the
disaster affected people and distribute gifts among most
vulnerable and neglected segments of society especially women
and children. During floods 2010 the time when a vast majority
of population in the flood affected area was homeless and needed
our support to move on. At that time of sheer distress and
desperation TNW distributed eid gifts amongst the flood affected
families and celebrated the event together with them so as to let
them know that we stand together with them in their difficult
times.
Marriage Gifts to Affected Brides: It is our local tradition that
poor village women collect dowry (Jahez) items since the birth of
girls so that they may not face any problem at the time of her
marriage. During the floods many girls whose marriage dates
were already fixed lost their jahez. Their parents were under
severe stress to arrange it again. Feeling the need TNW prepared
jahez packages for 30 brides. These packages were delivered at
their home without damaging their integrity. Packages contain 28
different items including clothes, shoes, blankets, mattress,
kitchen accessories etc.
26
27. Alhamdulillah
TNW has completed the
reconstruction of Jamia Masjid in
Basti Chan (ghazi ghat tehsil kotadu
district Muzaffargarh) with 600
person’s capacity to offer namaz. This
masjid was totally damaged during
the heavy floods 2010
27
30. RIDA stands for “Required Initiatives for Daughter’s Access”. Under this program TNW takes
need based initiatives for the girls to provide them services at their door step which are essential for
their educational, vocational and health related requirements. Before taking the initiative, we conduct
need assessment surveys and set priorities for the girl’s social needs in the target areas. After that with
a comprehensive, well planned and integrated approach, activities are designed with the valuable
input from all concerned local stakeholders.
RIDA Mahnisayal; a case study
Mahnisyal is a village between khanewal and Multan with population over 25000. For girls, there are
educational facilities but maximum up to matriculation level. After matriculation only affording
families can send their daughters to the cities for getting higher education while poor girls sit at home
although having talent and hope in their mind. Feeling the need, TNW with participation of local
stakeholders took initiatives and arranged RIDA center to provide these daughters an opportunity to
continue their educational journey in their reach with standard but affordable.
Here 90 girls are getting education above matriculation level. Some of these are those girls
who have restarted their education as they had terminated the process after completing 10th
class a few years back due to unavailability of local facility and resources to move to nearby
cities for this purpose.
RIDA Mahnisyal support includes:
1. Regular classes under qualified female teachers
2. Computer lab with internet facility
3. Registration with board and examination facility
4. Professional teaching course exam preparation
5. Extracurricular activities/visits for learning
6. Life skills and awareness sessions
In recent FA/FSc examinations, a RIDA
student won third position from the whole
district Khanewal while secured 1st position
at tehsil level. TNW arranged a grand prize
distribution ceremony to acknowledge the
efforts of teachers & management and
appreciate the students.
Remarkable achievement
30
32. Pakistan indeed is a young country as it has a large population that can be
categorized as falling within the UN’s definition of youth. An estimated 103 million Pakistanis, or 63%
of the population, fall under the age of 25 years. UNDP’s report points out that the proportion of
people under the age of 30 years is 68% of the total population of the country from which 37% youth
is illiterate, 71% of youth doesn’t receive career counseling at school, 28% finds curriculum irrelevant
to the job market, 47% don’t have sports facilities in their localities and 23% youth want to start their
own business but not supported at all. The youth is the most valuable asset for a country’s sustainable
socio-economic, cultural and political development but in Pakistan, youth is professed to be a problem
rather than a resource to be developed.
Under this program, TNW aims to play role of its part
and prepare a cadre of youth which can contribute
positively towards a dream Pakistan. Our focus is on
the following aspects regarding youth leadership
development;
To promote youth social entrepreneurship
Youth life coaching initiatives
Youth engagement in social services
Youth professionalism and capacity building
Our so far efforts include;
Youth Convention 2011
Youth Social Entrepreneurship Workshop
2011
Youth Life Coaching Program 2013 with basic
theme;
LEARNING-EARNING-SERVING
Under this program TNW also provide
uniforms, stationary, books and assist in
paying tuition fee to the deserving students.
We supported 2464 students of 30
institutions who lost everything in flood
2010. It includes 12846 support items of
25 different types.

34. TNW with support of
