Earlier this year, we shared the need for a new motorbike with you all. Thanks to your generous support, RAM now has one!
Our Cosmovision Center, where we offer medical care, vocational training, and legal assistance, is located in a more rural area close to those we serve.
However, the closest bus station is 1.9 miles away, about a 40 min walk, and the nearest market is 3.7 miles away.
When something is needed urgently, it takes a worker well over an hour to walk each way to and from the market. Otherwise, we must hire an expensive rickshaw.
Getting a new, reliable motorbike was crucial to supporting our efforts serving religious minorities in Pakistan. Plus, it will help with long-term sustainability but cutting down on rickshaw transportation costs.
Thank you again for your ongoing support as we work to end cycles of poverty for religious minorities in Pakistan. To contribute, please click here.
