On behalf of all my team mates I welcome you on the official website of Sahil Welfare Trust. As
mentioned in the introduction it’s a long journey of twenty six (26) years when I laid the stone
of SWT and it still continues.
The question is what convinced me, motivated me, directed me and pushed me to be a
philanthropist. There were two driving forces which made this all happen; one was the
deprivation of my own loved ones of basic necessities and the 2nd and the major one was my
Father Mr. Sardar Muhammad Shakir (Late) who being a teacher was very empathetic. His
empathetic indoctrination gave me a vision to pay back the society. I built a welfare hospital on
his name as well naming, Shakir Welfare Medical Centre in Gharo District Thatta.
God also helped me, kept me resilient and steadfast in this noble cause. Further I was awarded
with a team with even greater spirit and our combined efforts bring ease, prosperity,
education, financial independence in the lives of thousands of people. By the grace of God we
are expanding our reach from land to the islands in the midst of the sea.
I along with my team humbly invite you to join us and strengthen our hands by any of the skills,
competence or assets you have. Join this noble cause and we will share the purest prayers of
thousands of people with you.
Stay Blessed.
