In a heartwarming display of solidarity and compassion, a Chinese-Pakistani charity group has teamed up with other charitable organizationsand love businesses to deliver 700 pairs of shoes to children in 2 Afghan refugee schools in Islamabad and tent camps in the flood-hit Dadu district of Sindh province, in early May.

The initiative, led by the China-Pakistan Youth Exchange Community, aims to provide comfort and warmth to the children, Gwadar Pro reported on Monday.

The shoes, carefully selected to ensure they are comfortable and suitable for children’s growing feet, were carefully packed and transported to the affected areas.

At the schools, the children were overjoyed to receive their new shoes. Many of them had never owned a pair of brand-new shoes before and were eager to try them on.

Principals expressed their deep appreciation for the kindness and support shown by the charity group.

In Dadu district, the shoes were distributed to children living in temporary tent camps set up after the floods.

Children who have been displaced from their homes and schools wear worn-out or inadequate footwear.

The new shoes have brought a sense of relief and happiness to their daily lives and will help them navigate the challenging conditions in the camps.

“These shoes are not just a pair of footwear, but a symbol of love and care from the Chinese-Pakistani community,” said Ma Bin, the team’s responsible person.

“We hope that these small gifts will bring joy to the children and help them feel more confident and motivated to pursue their education.”

The charity team has been actively involved in various community development projects in Pakistan, focusing on areas such as education, healthcare and poverty alleviation.

The group is encouraging individuals and businesses to donate items like clothing, food and educational materials to help those in need.

The charity team believes that through small but meaningful initiatives, they can make a difference in the lives of vulnerable children and their families.

They plan to continue their efforts and work towards a brighter future for the children of the country.
