Ghulam Muhammad Awan

(Secretary General)

Dear Camp Participants!!

Assalam- o-alaikum! My name is Ghulam Muhammad Awan and I am Secretary General of Pakistan Red Crescent Society. It is very satisfying and heartwarming for me to engage with young volunteers of PRCS on the occasion of PRCS National Youth Camp 2015. The theme of this year’s Camp is Young, Global, and Active. We, at PRCS, are committed to invest in developing the capacities of young humanitarians who have faith and commitment to selflessly serve the humanity.

In the aftermath of recent disasters that hit different parts of Pakistan, the dedicated volunteers of PRCS have reached out to the affected communities to help them in hostile and dangerous conditions, showing resilience, commitment, solidarity and a vision to stand tall and put collective good before their lives and wellbeing. You make us all proud.

It is our endeavor to equip you with the tools to combat challenges in the most effective manner. We have designed this camp to provide you with maximum knowledge in an interactive environment. The Camp shall be focusing on being Together for Humanity, respect for diversity, youth empowerment, enabling environment for youth and change comes from within. We also aim to promote harmony by exposing you to different cultures and lifestyles.

I wish you all, Good Luck!

Message for Volunteers

“National Youth & Volunteer Camp to me is not only to provide our youth with a platform to identify problems and make decisions in resolving these issues, but also to empower them with the tools that will enable them to make educated choices and decisions. The youth of today is the future of tomorrow is contradictory to me, because they are our PRESENT NOT FUTURE. We need to invest in them today, and to engage them. Our younger generation has the power and all they need is for us to channelize it.

On that note I welcome you to the camp with a hope that you will make the most of it. Happy camping!”
