Pakistan's commitment towards the Millennium

Development Goals (MDGs)'Education For All'

(EFA) is a challenge in a scenario with so many

impediments in the educational system. Indeed,

education is suffering from resource constraints,

because of existence of under-privileged society.

It is believed that greater education opportunities

and related resources will empower the younger

generation to acquire quality education with

diverse pool of knowledge.

Keeping in consideration the importance of

education and holistic improvement of

communities, Hashoo Foundation (HF) formed a

partnership with Rotary Books for the World

program and Rotary Clubs in Pakistan to

contribute in improving literacy efforts through

the donation of books to educational institutions,

learning centers , students , youth and

communities across Pakistan. Books and

educational material help students increase

knowledge and help develop modern society

through knowledge sharing and learning from

intellectuals living around the world.

Education through reading is a sustainable and

long term learning process frequently associated

with experiences of students they attained during

1. Introductiontheir educational journey. Reading books on

diverse themes and subjects has a great

importance because this is the way to expand

students' knowledge and groom up their vision

and skills towards the worldly affairs.

In 2014, Rotary Books for the World and The

Second Wind Foundation donated two more

containers (40 feet each) filled with 103,873 books

and educational materials to help improve

literacy efforts in Pakistan. Hashoo Foundation,

Rotary Club of Islamabad Margalla and Rotary

Club Rawalpindi received the books ranging from

primary to higher education levels. The books and

valuable research material were distributed to 115

educational institutions, organizations, libraries

and community reading rooms.

The books are a charity donation by USA and

Canadian citizens to aid literacy efforts in

Pakistan. The Second Wind Foundation and

Rotary Books for the World is the network by

which these donations are transferred from the

donors to the Hashoo Foundation and the Rotary

Clubs of Islamabad Margalla and Rawalpindi,

which agreed to distribute the books to the

selected schools and institutions across Pakistan

without charges.

According to the head of Pepperdine for

Management of Dawn institute of Education

Parwak Chitral maintained:

Reception of the valuable gifts of informative books

and reading materials for the students and teachers

will definitely increase their capacity to compete in

the modern society. It will also be helpful for the

students to be well prepared for examination and

other opportunities in the future. This initiative

from Rotary Books of the World will go a long way

in embellishing a well-mannered, disciplined and

knowledgeable society.

The impact of this noble cause would be far

reaching. A generous contribution from Rotary

Books for the World program and Hashoo

Foundation can change someone's life forever. The

books and other educational materials will be

fruitful in terms of getting more and more public

attentions and energy towards education, aside

from promoting rational and critical thinking.

Ultimately it will pose a positive impact on the

development of society.

A more conducive environment of learning and

teaching could be advanced, based on the precious

books Rotary Books for the World and that Hashoo

Foundation have gifted to my school and college.

This will trigger interest in reading and hence an

environment of teaching and learning could be

expanded. Students' passion to sit in the library

and undertake research work will be a positive

outcome of this gracious cooperation, for which my

staff and I am really thankful.

Students at different educational levels will be

benefitted from the educational materials and books

received from Hashoo Foundation and Rotary

books. This great literary help will go into

consolidating the academic foundation of children

in my institution.

According to the staff in-charge of Student

Affairs:

Students at professional level will receive proper

guidance, information and education in areas of

finance, accounting, risk management and

governance. The books we received from Hashoo

Foundation and Rotary books will also greatly help

us in academic as well as professional activities of

our college particularly in the field of medical

science, engineering and general education.

State Development Organization (SDO) Pakistan,

a Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) based NGO said:

The donation of books from Rotary Books for the

World, Hashoo Foundation and Rotary Clubs will

increase the worth and capacity of the

organizational Resource Center Swat and will

benefit students by sparking reading habit amongst

them. It was further narrated that the books will be

helpful in promoting understanding towards

economic empowerment, peace and prosperity in

the long run.

4. Case Studies4.1. Case Study 1: The Rise International School

System, Barakaho Islamabad

The literacy rate in the surrounding is high.

Nonetheless, we are focusing on improving the

quality of knowledge and information by utilizing

all resources available at the school, where there are

500 students at present. The enrolment of students

from vulnerable families is about 80%, we enroll the

ones who cannot afford to buy books and reading

materials. The Books donated by Rotary Books for

the World, Hashoo Foundation and Rotary Clubs

have made things easier for these students.

The school was in developing phase, hereafter

gives great importance to the availability of

educational materials.

The Rise International School Barakaho is a

leading private school in the suburbs of

Islamabad, working with a vision to serve the

underprivileged communities. Since its

establishment, the school has maintained

remarkable academic record, which has been

helpful in reaching out to the majority of

population in Barakaho.

Mr. Muhammad Arshad, principal of the School

said:

The Management of the school admitted that:

After identifying the need of a library, the school

administration approached Hashoo Foundation,

requesting for donation of Rotary books to the

library, which, as they put it will enable them to

make the school a real hub of information and

standard education. Today, Rise International

Public School has a library consisting of more than

2,000 books.

Explaining the impact of books on the academic

well being of the school, Mr. Muhammad Arshad

said:

Reflection from teachers of the same school:

These books will play a critical role in broadening

the vision of students aside from deepening their

thought and reconstruction of information. Besides

studying the books to enrich their information,

students and teachers will also use these valuable

resources as a source of cross-reference for research

purposes. These books will help the students in

exploring the culture and literature of western

civilizations, he added.

Because of the internet, the habit of book reading

has been damaged. Students and teachers have

easier access to information through the internet

whenever they need something. The initiative of

Hashoo Foundation and Rotary Club will play

significant role in rejuvenating the reading habit

from the diversified collection of books.

4.2. Case Study 2: Hunza Leaders College, Aliabad

Hunza

Hunza Leaders College (HLC) is an emerging

group of colleges in Hunza, Gilgit-Baltistan. Being

a leading educational institute, HLC is striving to

provide all basic necessities to their students.

Operating in a far-flung area, the institute faces a

tremendous lack of resources to promote the

efficacy of their students 'education.

Management of Hunza Leaders Colleges

explained:

Without a considerable number of resources, an

educational institution can hardly claim to impart

standard education to its pupils.

Mr. Shukoor (HF) organized an orientation session on book reading habits with students in Islamabad.

With regard to the Rotary books donation, the

spokesperson of HLC added:

The impact of books on one's life is everlasting and

far-reaching. We believe there is no room for

mediocrity in the 21st century. Students must be

equipped with the knowledge and competence to

effectively compete on national and international

platforms. The accessibility to the international

universities now is in hand-held computers. The

books will greatly improve analytical skills of

students to understand their field from different

approaches i.e. European, American etc. that would

enable them to pursue higher studies accordingly.

This will bring lasting effects not only to the lives of

students but to the community as whole.

Rotary books will help promote excellent reading

habits amongst students, who, in return, would be

able to deliver effective services to community in

the future.

2,000 books.

Explaining the impact of books on the academic

well being of the school, Mr. Muhammad Arshad

said:

Reflection from teachers of the same school:

These books will play a critical role in broadening

the vision of students aside from deepening their

thought and reconstruction of information. Besides

studying the books to enrich their information,

students and teachers will also use these valuable

resources as a source of cross-reference for research

purposes. These books will help the students in

exploring the culture and literature of western

civilizations, he added.

Because of the internet, the habit of book reading

has been damaged. Students and teachers have

easier access to information through the internet

whenever they need something. The initiative of

Hashoo Foundation and Rotary Club will play

significant role in rejuvenating the reading habit

from the diversified collection of books.

4.2. Case Study 2: Hunza Leaders College, Aliabad

Hunza

Hunza Leaders College (HLC) is an emerging

group of colleges in Hunza, Gilgit-Baltistan. Being

a leading educational institute, HLC is striving to

provide all basic necessities to their students.

Operating in a far-flung area, the institute faces a

tremendous lack of resources to promote the

efficacy of their students 'education.

Management of Hunza Leaders Colleges

explained:

Without a considerable number of resources, an

educational institution can hardly claim to impart

standard education to its pupils.

Mr. Shukoor (HF) organized an orientation session on book reading habits with students in Islamabad.

With regard to the Rotary books donation, the

spokesperson of HLC added:

The impact of books on one's life is everlasting and

far-reaching. We believe there is no room for

mediocrity in the 21st century. Students must be

equipped with the knowledge and competence to

effectively compete on national and international

platforms. The accessibility to the international

universities now is in hand-held computers. The

books will greatly improve analytical skills of

students to understand their field from different

approaches i.e. European, American etc. that would

enable them to pursue higher studies accordingly.

This will bring lasting effects not only to the lives of

students but to the community as whole.

Rotary books will help promote excellent reading

habits amongst students, who, in return, would be

able to deliver effective services to community in

the future.

4.3. Case Study 3: Dar Ali Bin Abi Talib School,

H-8 Islamabad

We are pleased to serve the most deserving segment of

the society by providing best facilities in Islamabad.

Due to lack of resources/materials and other highly

prioritized needs of the students, it was quite difficult to

replenish the library with required resources. Now is

possible with the help of the Rotary books.

Dar Ali Bin Abi Talib School, an Islamabad based

educational institute and a project of International

Islamic Relief, focuses on the education of

orphans and less privileged students across

Pakistan. It provides boarding to more than 200

orphan students that also includes provision of

free education with best facilities available at the

premises. Affiliated with Federal Board of

Intermediate and Secondary Education

Islamabad for Higher Secondary School

Certificate Level, the school has remarkable

footings in its operation.

Javed Ullah Khan, the principal of the school

spoke of the contribution from HF and Rotary as

follows:

Keeping in consideration the need and

importance of the library, the concerned school

Management inferred:

The institute observed that number of students

attending the library increased after it was

replenished with books. The management and

students are very pleased with the donation of

valuable books and educational materials by

Rotary and HF.

Hashoo Foundation has conducted regular visits

to the library to provide their technical support in

how to manage the books in the library.

In order to keep registration with Federal Board of

Intermediate and Secondary Education Islamabad, it is

essential that the library should have at-least 3,000

books. The school was in shortfall of books and now they

regularly insist on increasing the number of books. The

direct benefit of Hashoo Foundation and Rotary book

donation is that the library has been filled with adequate

number of booksa condition required for FBISE.

5. Role of VolunteersVolunteers played vital role in effectively sorting

and distributing of Rotary books among the

selected institutions. Education Department of

Hashoo Foundation developed a well-organized

team of volunteers, majority of them are HF

Scholars, YDC Students and Alumni members of

HF Scholarship Program. In 2014, Hashoo

Foundation engaged approximately 200

volunteers for unloading, sorting, grading, listing,

packing and distributing of Rotary books.

HF team, Rotary and other stakeholders highly

appreciated their dedication and spirit of

volunteerism. A core member of the HF team

noted that he was very inspired by the passion

and dedication of these volunteers towards the

task assigned to them.

From the volunteers' perspective, the experience

was also beneficial for them as during sorting,

grading and listing of books they went through

considerable contents, which was a source of

information and inspiration for them.

24

6. Challenges and LearningsWe received thousands of different books,

which need ample time for sorting. It is

difficult to find regular volunteers who

commit to help for certain time. New

volunteers joining in every weekend

makes difficult the continuity and the

consistency of the work.

Educational institutions in far-flung areas

have difficulties reaching the distribution

point. In order to overcome this obstacle,

HF had to procure support to deliver the

books through courier.

It was difficult to develop a schedule with

Rotary volunteers and mobilize them on

required time.

Due to unavailability of communication

services and Internet in far-flung areas, it is

very difficult to collect pictures and reports

in due time.

We learned there is a high demand for

reference books like dictionaries,

thesaurus, Encyclopedias etc.

The USA effort has spread well beyond Texas in

its tenth year. Rotary Clubs in sixteen states have

contributed to the project. The number of the

shipments over the years has increased from three

per year to three per month. February 2006 saw a

dramatic increase in shipping capability when

Mclean Cargo Specialists started hosting the

shipments. McLean was a professional Freight

Forwarder owned by Rotarian Angie Jimenez.

Problems with paperwork which had troubled the

project from its beginning have been solved by

McLean. Mr. Jimenez has sold his business in 2008

and the new owners did not wish to donate their

services as Mr. Jimenez did.

The project is hosted by Excel Corporation in its La

Porte, Texas location. A professional warehouse

and shipper are necessities for the transport of

donations-in-kind. Volunteers are absolutely

necessary to make the project work but

supervision of loading the containers and

processing the paperwork needs to be

professionally done. The Rotarians of District

5890 and 5910 have provided a reservoir of

volunteer help at repackaging the books for

optimum loading and shipping. Click here for

7.5. Role of Rotary Club of Islamabad Margalla

Rotary appeared in the area, now District 3272

(Pakistan and Afghanistan) in the year 1927 when

Rotary Club of Lahore was chartered on 7th Dec

1927. The second club was chartered in Karachi on

11th May 1933. The third was Hyderabad, which

received its charter on 17th Nov 1938.

In 1942-43 these clubs belonged to the then District

88. It comprised of areas from Bombay to Delhi.

The first District Governor elected from this

district was Rev. R. C. Bartels of RC Hyderabad. In

1945-46, Hiralal Srichand Bharvani also from RC

Hyderabad was elected governor. Dr. Dev Raj

Narang of Rotary Club of Lahore was the first

District Governor of what is now Pakistan. He was

the DG in 1947-48.

Later, the southern area of Pakistan was

redistricted to number 51 and Rotarian Yussuff

Nurmahomed Chinoy remained the Governor in

1954-55. Re-districting of the area later resulted

into two districts namely 310 comprising of areas

from Kabul to Delhi and 305 from Karachi to

Bombay. In the year 1961-62 Syed Jameel H. Rizvi

(later Justice) of RC Lahore and Hakim

Muhammad Ahson of RC Karachi were the

Governors simultaneously. In the late 60s, the

then Pakistan (including East Pakistan) was

formed into one district 307. However, after

separation of Bangladesh the present entity of

West Pakistan was given the District 327 which

was then assigned 3270 in 1995.
