The Pakistan Navy League (PNL), continues its tradition of serving underprivileged communities through its Good Deeds Program. This Ramadan, PNL organized a food distribution ceremony at Baba Island, where essential food hampers were distributed to needy families.
A Thoughtful Initiative for a Blessed Month

We are honored to continue supporting Baba Island’s residents through such initiatives." Captain Ashfaq Agha also addressed the attendees, highlighting the PNL’s ongoing commitment to community welfare: "This is not just a one-time event; the Pakistan Navy League has been actively involved in supporting Baba Island for years. We aim to expand these efforts to include more sustainable solutions for the residents." The smiles and prayers of gratitude from the recipients were a heartwarming testament to the impact of this initiative. For many families, these food hampers meant a Ramadan without hunger, anxiety, or distress.
