Pakistan Sweet Home, one of Pakistan's leading welfare organizations dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of orphaned and underprivileged children, has once again expanded its mission of compassion by launching two new humanitarian initiatives: the Fatima-tuz-Zahra Dastarkhwan and the Fatima-tuz-Zahra Free Tadfeen (Burial) Service. The inauguration ceremony was held on 19th June 2026, marking yet another milestone in Pakistan Sweet Home's continued commitment to serving humanity without discrimination.
The inaugural ceremony was graced by the presence of esteemed chief guests,
Commissioner Rawalpindi Ameer Khattak and Tahira Aurangzeb (Former MNA), who both lauded the efforts of Pakistan Sweet Home in extending vital services to the underserved communities of Rawalpindi. Their presence at the event reflected the growing recognition of Pakistan Sweet Home's work, not only among the public but also within government and civil administration circles.

The first branch of this initiative has been set up at DHQ Hospital, Rawalpindi. The second branch has been established on Liaquat Road, where it operates alongside Pakistan Sweet Home's Free Burial Service office, creating a centralized hub of compassion and support for the local community.
