Amazing Pakistani Social Workers
Parveen Saeed
A truly noble cause of providing poor families a decent meal in honorable manner is what 'Khana Ghar' (loosely translated as Food House) all about. The brainchild of a simple, down-to-earth social worker, Parveen Saeed, this facility provides meals to poor families at unbelievably low price - yet not free. The logic behind subsidizing it to near-zero (but not zero) price is amazing in itself. Parveen Saeed believes that poor person's integrity remains intact if he or she is paying for it. The quality of food is of any local hotel and is open to all.
She has slowly expanded the operations and is trying to help more and more people through this innovative venture. Khana Ghar provides food in low-income areas to families as well as day laborers who find it a dignified manner of combating hunger.
