And so the evergreen Amal Fellowship came to an end after 3 months filled with learning and networking.

Amal has helped me bring out the leadership qualities that I didn't know existed inside of me, helped me polish my communication and presentation skills further! Investing the 3 Months into the fellowship was one of the best decisions that I have ever taken.

Last Sunday 21st February 2021 was the official last session of our batch, it was full of a mixture of emotions, we were happy, sad, and having fun at the same time. Some were happy for making such…

The past few months have gone by rather quickly, but that's what time is all about. It tends to fly by when you are enjoying it, leaving you in an awe-struck spiral of good memories. When I applied for the fellowship, I was under the impression that it would just turn out to be a dry but informative fellowship but THANK GOD! I was wrong!

The fellowship turned out to be one of the best decisions that I could have had taken, I have met very wonderful people throughout this session…

I can't even digest the fact that it's already Week 10 of the Amal Fellowship, time really flies by when you are enjoying it. To sum it all of the experiences of the fellowship in one blog would be a crime. However, there is one that has had a profound effect on me.

Back around week 8 or 7, we were assigned our mega projects based on ideas that we had given out! I got assigned to Circle 4 with four others, who have by time become good friends. When we had to start work on our project, we…

A small Recap: As we had pledged before that we will strive towards our goal of helping set a “Dastarkhawan” for 300 or more people by the end of the Mega Project. By the grace of Almighty God, we have crossed more than the halfway mark up till now and we are going strong.

Dastarkhwan — goal is to defeat hunger and to stand against poverty protecting the dignity of people and the short term aim of this project is to reach at least 300 people before the end of the fellowship. While the long-term aim is to keep it running for as long as possible and in the meanwhile hopefully try to make an impact.

We have planned to provide food to poor people from a network of food banks which will be placed in several areas of Lahore. Instead of wasting food at homes, hotels, and events, the leftover food will be…
