In a remarkable display of humanitarian service, the Al Iman Youth Foundation, under the leadership of District President Sheikh Danish, has emerged as a crucial support system for patients in need of blood transfusions across Ganderbal.
The foundation’s dedicated team, including District Vice President Ajaz Ahmad, Sajid Aziz, Ravees, Ishfaq, Rehana, Shabaaz, Amir Din, Aqzar Raheel, and Peer Masroor, has been actively involved in life-saving efforts, ensuring that no one in the district faces difficulties due to a shortage of blood.
Speaking about the initiative, Sheikh Danish highlighted the unwavering commitment of his team to humanitarian work.
“Whether it is cancer patients, accident victims, or individuals undergoing surgeries, our team is always on standby to provide blood donations whenever required. Day or night, we are available because we believe that saving lives is the noblest service a person can offer to society,” he stated.
He further emphasized that the Al Iman Youth Foundation functions with a spirit of inclusivity and compassion, without discrimination based on caste, color, or religion. “We do not look at someone’s background when offering help. Our mission is purely driven by the idea of serving humanity. Blood has no religion, and neither does our commitment to this cause. We want to ensure that no family suffers due to the unavailability of blood during critical situations,” he added.
The foundation’s selfless contributions have been widely appreciated by the people of Ganderbal, with many recognizing their efforts as a beacon of hope. Numerous patients and their families have expressed gratitude for the timely assistance provided by the team, often in life-or-death situations.
With their relentless dedication and selfless service, Sheikh Danish and his team continue to strengthen the values of kindness, unity, and humanitarian support in Ganderbal. Their work serves as an inspiration for others to contribute to society and make a difference in the lives of those in need.
One of the volunteers, Aqzar Raheel told , “we have seen too many patients in the hospital, and they needed blood. That was the day we started our volunteer group with the mission of saving lives across the valley. Today, we stand proud, knowing both we and our donors have made a difference. Since 2021, we’ve collectively donated nearly 25,000 pints of blood across Kashmir, and our commitment to saving lives continues to grow stronger every day.”
Sajid Aziz said, “We are saving countless lives—accident victims, pregnant women, cancer patients, and many others in urgent need of blood. Last year, I personally traveled to Chandigarh to donate blood to an Anemia patient. We urge everyone who is willing to donate to contact us and help us save every patient in need of blood.”
