SHINE Humanity Pakistan Partners With Art of Giving

SHINE Humanity Pakistan has partnered with Art of Giving to support healthcare in underserved rural communities. Donors can contribute through the Automated Kindness Machine at Karachi's Ocean Mall and Atrium Mall.

In this article we set out where the machines are and what the partnership says people can support. Here is everything you need to know.

Where SHINE Humanity Pakistan is taking donations

The giving point named in the announcement is the Automated Kindness Machine. It is at two Karachi malls, Ocean Mall and Atrium Mall. The partnership also offers chances to volunteer, and to support mobile clinics, telemedicine and clean water projects.

The healthcare work is described as support for underserved rural communities. The announcement does not name the districts those clinics will visit, or a fundraising target.

Why it matters

A mall machine makes a rural health project visible to city shoppers. What it does not yet show is how much has been collected, or which communities have already been reached.

• The organisations are SHINE Humanity Pakistan and Art of Giving
• The cause is healthcare in underserved rural communities
• The donation point is the Automated Kindness Machine
• The malls are Ocean Mall and Atrium Mall in Karachi
• Volunteer roles are also offered
• The projects named are mobile clinics, telemedicine and clean water

What is not in this announcement

1. A donation total or a fundraising target.
2. The rural districts the clinics will serve.
3. How many machines are installed.
4. A start date for the volunteer programme.

What happens next

A figure for money collected, or a named community already served, would make the partnership easier to judge. We will update this article if either is published.

Our verdict

SHINE Humanity Pakistan and Art of Giving are asking Karachi shoppers, through machines at Ocean Mall and Atrium Mall, to support rural healthcare, mobile clinics, telemedicine and clean water. No total and no list of communities are in this announcement.
