HCI Annual Report 3

Assalamu Eleikum, everyone.

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Human Concern International, I thank you all for all your support.

The journey of HCI began 39 years ago with three Muslim brothers in the basement of Ottawa Mosque, after the Russian invasion of Afghanistan by getting together to collect clothes, food and medicine to help Afghan widows and children and those injured in the war. The organisation was named the Afghan Relief Fund, providing help to the displaced persons in Afghanistan and refugees camped in Pakistan.

Later the Afghan Relief Fund expanded its work to other needy countries and its name was changed to Human Concern International to reflect the true scope of its work. Today, HCI is helping the needy and the poor in more than 45 countries and collected over 150 million dollars.

HCI’s success and steady growth has been the results of the hard work and dedication of HCI staff, volunteers and committed Board of Directors. They bring impressive skills and valuable experience from across the world and I thank them for their outstanding efforts.

The Board joins me in paying tribute to our Executive Director, Ms. Mahmuda Khan and all local and international staff. They carry out their essential work with skill, creativity, compassion, energy and enthusiasm in often risky and demanding environment.

Most of all, HCI owes a debt of gratitude to all donors who have supported our work here in Canada and worldwide over the past four decades

All our projects are monitored and inspected by our team/directors to ensure the good outcome. The processes, and policies and guidelines are met properly.

We owe our donors and supporters a debt of gratitude for supporting our work for now almost forty years. I wish to acknowledge their generous contributions that were utilizing to undertake relief programs and implement development projects with the utmost efficiency. Thank you for entrusting us with such noble task. We will strive to continue to deliver good results and worthy of your trust.

Sincerely,

Syed Mumtaz Akhtar HCI Chairperson

Dear Friends,

The journey of Human Concern International (HCI) over the past 39 years have been incredible.

It is my great honour to be a part of this Organization which serves the work of God and help to make positive impact in the lives of millions of people in need across the globe.

I joined HCI as a volunteer in 2010 and since then every moment spent with HCI has been immensely blessed. To have the opportunity to see the work of this Organization as an observer since my childhood then as a young donor, then as a volunteer and now as a team member, what makes me the most content that HCI is honest, sincere, modest, dedicated and well-intended Organization from inside and outside.

Human Concern International has been delivering very meaningful and impactful programs in over 40 countries with efficiency, effectiveness and transparency.

We will continue to make sure that we give our best to keep your trust and utilize your generous donations to serve as many orphans, widows, and seniors in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Gaza, India, Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and many more tragedy-stricken regions.

At times it gets very difficult for HCI team when we are overcome by emotions to witness innocent lives especially our young children and seniors suffering in ways no human should experience. But each time we face these difficult moments we are overwhelmed by the amount of support and prayers we receive from our donors, volunteers and all the friends of HCI.

Your support gives us the strength to move on and keep working harder to serve the humanity.

2018 has been another fulfilling year for HCI and we are happy to share this Annual Report which will accredit our work.

2019 has also been a very fruitful period thus far and we feel whole-heartedly confident that with your continued support we will build many more water wells to quench the thirst, fund schools to provide education to underprivileged children, build orphanages to give a bright future to orphans, support hospitals to heal the hurting, build shelters and livelihood programs to help families live a life of dignity and self-sufficiency.

While HCI contributes to Emergency Relief programs in disastrous and war-torn zones, we will keep our focus on “hands up” as opposed to “hand outs” values of our Organization.

I would like to conclude with a message I was given from a mother I met at Rohingya Refugee camp,

“…my daughter, I will always remember you and make prayers for your donors. When you go back home, tell your people not to forget us.”

I will always remember this message which drives our team work day and night throughout the weeks and weekends to help send relief to these people in need.

Together you and HCI will transform the lives of many people worldwide.

On behalf of the entire team of HCI and most importantly our beneficiaries, I’d like to express our most heartfelt gratitude for all your support.

Thank you and we look forward to sharing another successful yearly report with you in 2020
