The devastating trauma deeply affected her mental health, and she has continued to struggle with mental health challenges ever since.
For the past two years, Shauoor Welfare Foundation has been taking responsibility for Rafeeqa Bibi’s treatment and care. However, despite ongoing efforts, she has not shown significant improvement in her condition. Her daughters are also unable to take her into their homes and assume responsibility for her treatment and care. As a result, Rafeeqa Bibi remains a vulnerable woman in need of continued medical treatment, attention, compassionate care, and a safe place where she can live with dignity and security.
Rafeeqa Bibi’s situation highlights an important social issue. There is a pressing need for safe residential facilities and specialised care centres for women experiencing mental health challenges who have no one to look after them. When families are unable to provide care and suitable institutions are unavailable, vulnerable individuals are left facing even greater hardships.
Shauoor Welfare Foundation appeals for support to arrange Rafeeqa Bibi’s continued treatment, care, and safe accommodation. Your contribution can help sustain her treatment, meet her essential care needs, and provide her with a secure and supportive environment.
At the same time, Shauoor Welfare Foundation urges the Government of Pakistan and relevant authorities to establish specialised centres for vulnerable women and men experiencing mental health challenges. These facilities should provide safe shelter, treatment under the supervision of qualified mental health professionals, ongoing care, and opportunities to live with dignity.
Let us not overlook vulnerable women like Rafeeqa Bibi. Instead, let us become a source of support and hope for them. Through your Zakat, Sadaqah, and charitable donations, you can contribute towards her treatment and care.
Every human being deserves access to treatment, protection, compassionate care, and the right to live with dignity. Together, we can make a difference in Rafeeqa Bibi’s life.
