She added that the project was aimed at circulating wealth and food at no extra cost. “It’s amediumprovided to the society, to maintain a link with people from unprivileged backgrounds.” When asked about the adopted financial model of the RHA, the tone of Sarfaraz Abid hit an unusualmark, giving a clear indicator of the intensity of thematter, “Look, we don’t take a single penny ofmonetary donation from anyone,” he added, “Our volunteers through their personal connections build relations with the eateries for the project.” Ahmad, who is now in Pakistan after living a good number of years in the USA, said though neither did the RHA activity bolster theCVs of the volunteers, nor gained them monetary benefits, for him it was something beyond materialistic rewards. “It’s a matter of human connection,” he added. “I always say that doing something for others has its own high… you can only feel it.” In an email sent to The News, the RHA stated that that the Robin Hood Army’s Karachi chapter had managed to get 5,650 fed. The Lahore team entertained 100 people and the Islamabad chapter successfully hosted 65 in their first distribution today. So far the number for Pakistan towards the Mission100k has reached 5.815, “The Karachi Robins in all of their distributions since inception have now fed 15,450 people at 34 distribution centres”. While witnessing such noble cause, one can safely say that “Pakistan Zindabad” slogan sounds sweeter while feeding a hungry than in a frenzy state of mind on the streets.
