Review for OBAT Helpers USA, McLean, VA, USA
I have been donating charity funds regularly for the last 10 years on behalf of me, my family and from pooled funds from a number of my childhood and school friends to OBAT Helpers for the wellbeing of the Stranded Pakistanis in some 65 camps in Bangladesh. Every year we are donating from Canada Eid Al Azha sacrificial cow and goat meat to the camp dwellers there through OBAT who purchase the best livestock and perform all operations on site serving some 600 very poor and deserving families. Additionally, we have been donating for specific emergency medical/social help like lifesaving heart surgery of an 11 year old girl from the camp, installation of tube wells for adequate water supply, supporting all costs of marriages of daughters of very poor parents, all through OBAT. The reason of writing all this here is to let the world know, that in all these 10 years I have not found any other Charity Organization, so transparent in its operation and finances, and so passionate in ensuring that our charity dollars have gone into the hands of the most deserving destitute of Pakistan confined in Bangladesh in those shanty camps for the last 47 years whom Pakistan and the rest of the world has forgotten. All such charity operations are recorded by camera photography on site live and shared by OBAT with us (the Donors), where we see how and to whom our donation is being distributed and the smile on their faces and thankfulness in their eyes, which often makes us cry with tears of gratitude to our Lord for providing us with the opportunity and the platform (OBAT) to have been able to bring some happiness on the parched faces of those very long time sufferers of humanity. That boosts our morale and the zeal to do more and so our donations and support has grown over the years and will keep growing....
Lots of Love and prayers for those sufferers and for OBAT's team,
