JOURNEY OF SALMA MEMON
What happens with people is
they lack in Communication,
Computer skills and because of
which they are not able to get
good job.So to make them
strong and stand on their own
leg we support for the trainings
and make sure for the good
placement.
Project UMEED has managed
to organize over a hundred of
events and rallies for awareness
on issues like breast cancer.
They never skip a chance to
spread a smile. We celebrate
each and ever y festive to
imbibed the culture in children
and also organized various
education workshops for
children and underprivileged
families.

across the world and many
more. But the real reward, she
says, lies in the satisfaction that
they have made such a huge
difference in so many lives.
I believe in creating Leaders
not followers so that a leader
c a n l e a r n g e t i n s p i re ,
motivated and replicate the
same at other places. Alone
Salma or alone Social Activist
can't reach everywhere.
Message for the Generation:
The youth of today's generation
has power , strength and good
understanding to see the
suffering , pains in real sense
and help the needy in better
way. Volunteering helps us to
grow, develop groom oneself,
self-realization, understanding
of good and bad things and real
meaning of life. Volunteering is
not only important but also

essential to ll the gap that is
been created between the poor
and rich. Of course every drop
counts when youngster like us
contribute towards the welfare
of the society. It not only helps
for bringing the change that we
want to see in the society but
also it inspires others to follow
the footsteps and become a
leader to take initiatives. It's not
about the change its about
taking a stand for what you feel
is right.
Youth contribution is good and
progressing every passing year
as awareness has been created
right from school days to
corporates. It also depends on
individual, mental strength and
passion towards volunteering. I
will only say one can't reach
everywhere come join hands
together and take a pledge to
spread the goodness and
happiness around
unconditionally says Salma
Memon.
