Lets Join Hands To Help The Needy
Dear All,
While going through the posts during the past few days I have observed a lot of volunteers ready to help others......I take this opportunity to introduce an Idea for helping those "Lower Middle Class People" who are too proud to ask for help and almost every one of us must be knowing some one like that.
This idea came to me after I came to know about an old man working in a School in Doha for about 20 years his only son died of Cancer few years back and now at this age he has the liability of supporting the widow and children of his Son........ there are many cases around us like this ... let us create a fund to help people like this man in that fund each one of the volunteers can contribute (Any amount starting from 10 riyals) on monthly basis and the sum can be given to such needy people.
This is my first effort for such a social cause and I hope that there are more experienced people in this filed who can help and come up with suggestions for the practical implementation.
Regards

junaid....you can help them getting registered with "Qatar Charity"...they'll have a positive response if their case is genuine.
Well I did not know about the legality of this matter...but there must be a way to complete an effort like this....
You people are right about embassies and other organizations but you know how difficult it is to get help from such places.... more over my idea was to help those who are shy and hesitate in going to such places, such people don not ask for help and keep suffering quietly......
KHATTAK,
hope you won't find out ;)
Nic...that amused me as well. Wonder, why this number for NHRC? :P
Blood,
That is probably why their people are abused in the Gulf!
Khattak,
666 is the number of the beast and they have twice, watch out!
thomassoney..... yes, they can always contact the NHRC (National Human Rights Committee) at their Hotline # 6626663. Btw...the number would change to 66626663 from 28th of July, 2010.
which are almost useless all the time DUDE, specially MEA, ASIA, and the poor countries in Africa.
thomassoney,
yes there is, its called their own country's embassies.
is there any authorized org for each nationalities esply for nepalies, sreelankans doing voluntary services...? I came to know several cases just like salary pending for long, cheating n job contract, poor accomodation, lack of vacation, etc.. they fear to aaproach labor courts directly or dont know whom & where to approach.. i feel the need of some welfare org for each nationalities.. or if there is plz post their details..
I like the idea. Maybe you could speak to SPEED about it, and see how we could be of assistance. BUT, money - we are not allowed to handle. If money is involved, QACA will be haunting you all lol ...
as far as Pakistani nationals, there is a welfare fund working in Qatar under Pakistan embassy.. If that person is from Pakistan then its case can be referred to this welfare fund..
QLVG mostly do not deal with any matters concerning collection of money as this raises other complications and legal issues, however if there are special cases we can arrange the right people (authority) to help those in need.
Please contact QLVG manager Speed for further assistance. If its a genuine case he will look into the matter and of course we will all help out in any way we can. Just my two cents.
Be aware that unauthorized charity is illegal in Qatar!
"In May 2009, the Government issued a number of deportation orders to a multinational group of Christian expatriates for their involvement in unauthorized organized charity activities at labor camps in the industrial areas."
Idea, I think in this case we will need a committee to take care of all this contribution issues.
Nice idea and good heart for the needy, but how this will work properly? Can you give us some points?
going junaid, we as a group definitely can help the needy people.
