OUR PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Syed Wasimuddin Hashmi
President (2015–2025)
Idara Sadaat-e-Gulaothi (SG)
Dear Respected Members and Friends of SG,
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu,
After serving as the President of Idara Sadaat-e-Gulaothi (SG) for a fulfilling and humbling 10 consecutive years, I write to you today with deep gratitude and a sense of purpose.
Over the past decade, SG has grown immensely, both in its reach and impact:
- The number of members has increased from 400 to about 800 during the last 10 years.
- Idara’s funds that were only RS 1.40 million 10 years ago have now reached the staggering amount Rs. 13.00 million.
- Members were convinced to start social welfare activities from the Idara’s plate form not only for Idara’s members but also for the people outside the community. Accordingly, Idara started various programs in all spheres of life including but not limited to Education, Healthcare, Food Security, livelihood opportunities, youth development, relief & rehabilitation services and much more.
- Established collaboration agreements with other social welfare organizations to extend & enhance its programs.
- During times of hardship, including devastating floods in Pakistan, SG mobilized quickly to provide relief supplies, financial aid, and long-term rehabilitation to those affected in collaboration of other social welfare organizations.
- Our support extended beyond borders, as we joined hands with other social welfare entities to provide financial assistance to Myanmar refugees, to those affected  earthquake in Turkey and to our Palestinian brethren who are facing genocide in the hands of Israel standing in solidarity with those displaced and suffering.
These achievements were not mine alone, but the result of collective dedication—from our executive members, volunteers, donors, and especially you, our resilient and generous community.
With the upcoming SG elections scheduled for the third week of July 2025, I have made the decision not to contest for the position of President or any position for that matter. This decision stems from a firm belief that it is time to pass the baton to the younger generation, who bring fresh ideas, renewed energy, and a passion for service that will shape the future of this organization. However, I remain fully committed to SG’s mission and vision, and I will be available at all times to provide any support, or guidance to the incoming President and his team.
As I prepare to step into a supportive role, if so required, I ask for your continued trust and encouragement for the new leadership. Let us welcome this new chapter with unity, wisdom, and unwavering commitment to our noble cause.
May Allah (SWT) continue to bless SG and guide us all in serving humanity with sincerity, dignity, and compassion.
With heartfelt gratitude and duas,
Syed Wasimuddin Hashmi
President (2015–2025)
