To honour the services of front-line police personnel safeguarding Lahore by putting their own well-being at risk during the Covid-19 outbreak, Hashoo Group has launched an initiative to benefit them by providing Sehr and Iftar meals at their checkpoints during Ramazan.
This was agreed in a meeting held between the Civil Lines Division SP Dost Muhammad and the Pearl-Continental Hotel Manager Hussain Abbas on Wednesday.
Under its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative, Hashoo Group is going to provide daily Sehr and Iftar meals to on-duty law-enforcement agency (LEA) personnel deployed at security checkpoints under Lahore, Civil Lines Division.
The group, in collaboration with Lahore Police, is going to deliver a total of 7,000 hygienically packed, nutritious meals to the policemen manning these checkpoints throughout the Holy month of Ramadan.
In addition, Hashoo Foundation – through its Hashoo Humanitarian Programme – has already responded to the crisis with its emergency and relief activities such as the distribution of food packages, hygiene and medical kits to vulnerable communities and LEAs, and will continue to do so until the pandemic is over.
Hashoo Group Hospitality Division Chief Operating Officer Haseeb Gardezi said, “We thank the courageous policemen for displaying genuine care and bravery in bringing us peace and security while we stay comfortable and feel safe at our homes during this unprecedented time.”
