Band Score: 6.5 Bands
I want to talk about a really kind and helping person, his name was Edhi. He was the head of a welfare organisation in my hometown. But he also operated in the nearby cities of my country, Pakistan.
There were many services that he offered for the needy and the poor. He helped them by providing them with care homes or food to the people who could not afford it, as well as childcare homes, where you, where he helped orphans grow up and you know become. and he helped these kids to be able to support themselves.
There is one thing I remember about this person as a child because he does is not alive anymore, and I mostly I know him from his childhood days. He was really active and actively helps people. One thing I remember about this person is that he ran an ambulance service for the people. There were other services as well, but his service was, you know, really fast, and he thought about people from his personal perspective, you know he helped people because he wanted too, and he cared about the people.
These ambulances, my uhmm grandmother was sick one time we called several other ambulances but the first ambulance to arrive, which took my grandmother to the hospital, was his. Also, the ambulance was employed with a crew to provide first aid. So, that my personal experience with this organisation, but if I talk about the entirety of this person, and his history and the things that he did, it would be one sentnece and that would be he helped humanity to the best of his ability, and does not only help people, he keeps them, he try to keep people on their feet. He did not just help them, okay, one time a person comes to you and you give them money. This solves the problem at that time, and the person would come back again. He worked systematically.
