Food for St Albert's School in Gojra
With the recent attacks in Pakistan, St. Albert's School has received threats and is forced to shut down, along with the food markets in the area, and the prices of the food have increased. The students at St. Albert's need food.
Fr. Waqar is the director of St. Albert's School in the city of Gojra. The students at St. Albert's are students of brick kiln workers. The landlords trap brick kiln workers under impossibly large debts and forces them to make bricks all day for years to pay off their debt. Yet, the bookkeeping is not released, so they never know when their debts are paid off. Usually brick kiln workers remain enslaved generation to generation. Fr. Waqar wants to provide a path to freedom through his school for these kids. If we are able to raise $3,000, Fr. Waqar can provide the necessities for the students at the school for the next few weeks.

Here is the message from Fr Waqar:
I hope this message will find you in good health.
You all must be aware of Critical and War conditions between India and Pakistan. Indians have made some terrorist attacks on Pakistan which results in many deaths and so many injuries. There is an emergency in the whole country. Schools, colleges and other educational institutes are closed due to death threats.
Considering all these things in mind, we also have closed St. Albert’s High School but I still have students in Our Lady of Fatima Orphanage, I cannot send them anywhere but we are locked in our institute. All the markets are closed arnd food is very expensive these days.
My Dear, since we have kept 40 kids in Our Lady of Fatima Orphanage I need to manage their food by being inside the orphanage. I want to store some food for these kids so if the situation may get worse at least kids can have something to eat.
Therefore I request you to help us in buying food for these kids.
Thanking you in anticipation
Fr. Waqar Amer
