On March 9th, 2024, the IMI UK Chapter organized a successful Gala Dinner to raise funds for the University Medical Complex, IMI project in Karachi, Pakistan. Around 500 professionals and their families attended the event, which was moderated by renowned pharmacist and IMI UK member Nazim Ali.
IMI FOUNDER, Dr. Wajih Rizvi was invited to be a keynote speaker at an event in the UK. While representing IMI HQ he highlighted the organization's global projects in the service of humanity. Dr. Rizvi also congratulated and appreciated the efforts of Dr. Husain Raza (Outgoing IMI EU Coordinator) and his team for organizing the largest IMI EU event so far.
The evening was a SOLD-OUT event, and attendees were informed about the upcoming 500-bed state-of-the-art project by Imamia Medics International. Religious scholars, healthcare professionals, and community leaders spoke about their endorsement and participation in this University Hospital project, highlighting the importance of such an initiative in the region.
The IMI UK community was actively involved in the hospital fundraising efforts and also through various auction items, including paintings and collectibles. The event was beautifully filled with entertainment, including Live Nasheed, Comedy, Beautiful Recitations, and Rich Poetry, which kept the audience engaged throughout the night.
The success of the event was evident as a significant amount of funds were collected for the project. The event highlighted the never-ending humanitarian services of IMI and the impact its teams are able to bring to all corners of the world.
It was an excellent conference well planned, presented, and well attended. If individually traveling we may have never enjoyed the kind of reception the participants received throughout their stay in Iran.
I want to thank you all for giving me such a great opportunity to be a part of your team (in Haiti). It was a unique experience and I really enjoyed working with you all.
Thank you very much for the wonderful work you do. I have seen it first hand in Karbala during the Arbaeen camps and my son was fortunate to participate in two of the missions. I have made a donation today.
If InshAllah, I secure a residency in the upcoming match, I will owe the organizers and the speakers at the seminar more than they will take credit for.
IMI has been my outlet for philanthropic work since before I entered into high school. It is through IMI that I see my efforts, here in New Jersey, manifest into something much greater around the world. IMI has helped me realize that ambition alone is not enough to change the world; in order to achieve the changes we wish to see in this world we require ambition, vision, and most importantly execution. That is why I have joined IMI, so that my ambition and vision can meet their execution.
