Amazing Pakistani Social Workers
Shehzad Roy

A young singer who achieved national success in his early 20s, Shehzad Roy had an illustrious career in music and performing arts. He needed not to worry about anything with fame and fortune coming his way at a very young age. But he took another path.
A youngster, a pop singer, who would otherwise not be taken seriously decided to work in an area where others had not earlier went. He thought of helping less privileged children who are forced into child labor by their families and even basic education becomes a distant dream for them.
Shehzad Roy established 'Zindagi trust' and raised funds for helping these children in order to provide them better educational opportunities than ordinary government schools. Today, in less than 10 years after its establishment, this organization has helped hundreds and thousands of children by educating them and has also extended its services in the disasters like Earthquakes and floods which hit Pakistan recently.
For his glaring contributions, he became one of the youngest recipients of Hilal-i-Imtiaz conferred to him by Government of Pakistan. He has also received many other international honors which include being selected for Patricia Blunt Koldyke fellowship in social entrepreneurship.
