In 2024, the SEEDS Foundation extended its humanitarian efforts to the Haveli District in Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) by conducting a significant Qurbani (sacrificial meat) distribution during Eid ul-Adha. Recognizing the region's vulnerability due to economic challenges and limited access to resources, SEEDS aimed to ensure that marginalized communities could partake in the Eid celebrations with dignity.
The initiative involved the procurement of sacrificial animals, which were slaughtered and processed in accordance with Islamic guidelines. The resulting meat was then distributed to over 1,000 underprivileged families across various villages in Haveli District. Special attention was given to widows, orphans, the elderly, and individuals with disabilities, ensuring they received their share of the Qurbani meat. The distribution was carried out in collaboration with local community leaders, ensuring transparency and fairness in the process.
This Qurbani initiative by SEEDS not only provided essential nutrition to those in need but also fostered a sense of community and solidarity during the auspicious occasion of Eid ul-Adha. It exemplified SEEDS' commitment to uplifting marginalized communities and promoting social welfare in the region.
