A five member-team of Pakistani volunteers, who helped and rescued hundreds of people and dozens of vehicles, during the recent rains in the UAE, were honoured by the Consulate General of Pakistan in Dubai.
The Pakistani volunteers were warmly welcomed by Consul General Hussain Muhammad and other officers at the Consulate in Dubai on Thursday.
During a ceremony to honour the volunteers at the Consulate General in Dubai, Hussain awarded certificates of appreciation to them in recognition of their unmatched services during the recent floods in the UAE.
"We are immensely proud of the Pakistani volunteers who demonstrated exceptional courage and compassion during the recent heavy rains in the UAE. Their selfless dedication to rescuing those in need reflects the true spirit of humanity,” said Consul General Hussain.
While acknowledging their efforts, the Consul General underscored that such acts of kindness and service to humanity have obviously positive impacts on others and encourage individuals to make such contributions in times of crisis. “We salute these volunteers for their unwavering commitment to serving others, and their actions serve as an inspiration to us all,” said Hussain.
Members of the volunteer team included Tanvir Athar, Suleiman Tanvir, Shahid Ibrahim Gull, Muhammad Owais, Affan Tanvir and Alay Zaidi. “After our services in the recent rains, a number of volunteers have connected us and offered their services for any such efforts in future,” said Tanvir Athar.
The volunteers informed that they have also been rescuing people stuck in deserts and have developed a mobile application to receive requests for assistance.
