Patients' Welfare Association-PWA

The Patients' Welfare Association (PWA) is a non-political, non-governmental organization (NGO) located within Civil Hospital, Karachi.

The Organization, Run solely by the students of Dow Medical College, works for the medical aid of underprivileged patients by providing a number of services free of charge. 

"What began as a single cabinet of medicine funded from their own lunch money, today proudly stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the biggest, most well-funded, highly developed organizations and institutions."

The organization depends upon its donors and volunteers for its functionality and maintenance. Other than conventional charity donations and zakat funds the PWA also holds many fundraising campaigns such as bake sales and promotion in school campuses.

We spend over PKR 70 million on the welfare of others and with the continued support of our kind donors and well-wishers, we hope to serve a lot more.
