Iftar Drive by Roots IVY Campuses: A Week of Giving and Remembrance

The Roots IVY campuses across the country came together this week for a heartfelt initiative—an Iftar Drive aimed at spreading kindness, generosity, and community spirit during the blessed month of Ramadan. Every campus played an active role, distributing iftar boxes among the needy and less fortunate. This initiative was not only about giving back but also about fostering empathy and gratitude among students, who participated enthusiastically in this noble cause.

Spreading the Spirit of Ramadan

Ramadan is a month of self-reflection, prayer, and charity. It reminds us of our duty to help those who struggle to secure basic necessities. Keeping this essence in mind, the students and faculty at Roots IVY dedicated their time and efforts to ensure that those in need had a fulfilling meal to break their fast. The iftar drive was executed with great planning and commitment, as volunteers from each campus stepped forward to prepare and distribute food packs filled with essentials such as dates, fruits, water, and hot meals.

The initiative not only helped those in need but also taught students a valuable lesson in compassion and unity. Through direct engagement, they witnessed the impact of their contributions, reinforcing the importance of giving back to society.

A United Effort Across All Campuses

One of the most remarkable aspects of this drive was its collective effort. From Islamabad to Lahore, Karachi to Faisalabad, and beyond, every Roots IVY campus took part in this initiative, ensuring maximum outreach. Students, teachers, and administrative staff collaborated to distribute iftar boxes in various locations, including underprivileged areas, orphanages, and labor-intensive work zones.

Students also arranged an iftar party within their respective campuses, where they came together in the true spirit of Ramadan. The evening was not just about enjoying the meal; it was an opportunity for reflection, prayer, and strengthening the bonds of brotherhood and sisterhood.

Honoring the Legacy of Dr. Khadija Mushtaq

This year’s iftar drive held a special significance as students and faculty came together to pray for the departed soul of Dr. Khadija Mushtaq, the esteemed founder of Roots IVY. Her vision, dedication, and commitment to education and community service continue to inspire generations of students. As a leader in the field of education, she emphasized the importance of character-building and social responsibility.

During the iftar gatherings, special prayers (dua) were offered in her memory, recognizing her contributions and the lasting impact she had on the Roots IVY family. Her spirit of generosity and commitment to excellence lived on through the students’ collective efforts in making the iftar drive a success.

Beyond Ramadan: A Commitment to Community Service

While the iftar drive was a highlight of the week, it also reinforced a long-term commitment to community service. Roots IVY has always promoted philanthropy, empathy, and leadership among its students, encouraging them to take part in initiatives that make a tangible difference in society.

The success of the iftar drive has sparked discussions on more frequent social welfare activities, ensuring that the ethos of giving is practiced beyond the holy month. The students expressed their eagerness to continue supporting underprivileged communities through similar drives, whether through food distribution, education programs, or other charitable initiatives.

A Lasting Impact

The iftar drive organized by Roots IVY campuses was not just about distributing food; it was a powerful reminder of the values that Ramadan instills—gratitude, kindness, and selflessness. Through this initiative, students learned the true essence of giving, the importance of community, and the strength that comes from unity.

As the sun set and the iftar boxes were distributed, smiles lit up faces—both of those receiving and those giving. The prayers for Dr. Khadija Mushtaq echoed across campuses, and her legacy shone brightly through the compassion and dedication displayed by her students.

This was more than just an iftar drive; it was a tribute to a great leader, a lesson in humanity, and a step toward making the world a better place, one small act of kindness at a time.

May the spirit of generosity continue to thrive within Roots IVY, inspiring future generations to give, serve, and lead with compassion.
