Flt. Lt. Rashid Ahmed Khan Shaheed

Brief History

Rashid Memorial Welfare Organization (RMWO) was set up by a group of dedicated retired PAF officers in 1998 in memory of Flt. Lt. Rashid Ahmed Khan, who embraced ‘Shahadat’ on 13th December, 1997 when his aircraft caught fire above a densely populated area.

In a struggle to save thousands on the ground, he maneuvered his Mirage aircraft away from the thickly populated area but in the effort sacrificed his own life. In the same spirit RMWO was set up to dedicate and give to others what is not ours – our life through the spirit to help those who need it the most.

Rashidabad, a Pilot Project of RMWO, is located in interior Sindh, 35 KMs from Hyderabad towards Mirpur Khas on the main Hyderabad – Mirpur Khas Highway. Spread over 100 acres, its Foundation Stone was laid on 13th December 1998 by the then Governor Sindh, Lt .Gen. (R) Moinuddin Haider. It encompasses all four elements of a sustainable society: education, health, environment and socio-economics.

Mission

Rashidabad a project of RMWO is the transformation of its’ mission into reality which states  “Set up model Towns  throughout the rural landscape of our country by integrating all essential facilities in a well-knit mosaic so as to ensure a positive beneficial outflow to the needy rural folk – all under one roof. The main thrust is on education, health and vocational training, thus contributing above all in helping to transform the rural mindset from superstitious to the rational. Corollary benefits that would accrue include a check on rural migration to urban towns and empowerment of the underprivileged.”

Objective

Set up model villages throughout the country by integrating all essential facilities in a well-knit mosaic so as to ensure a positive beneficial outflow to the needy rural folk – all under one roof.

Accomplish

Rashidabad is a project of collaboration. RMWO’s objectives are met by joining hands with other experienced and credible Welfare Organizations with expertise in their own field, to set up operations in Rashidabad. The municipal facilities are provided by RMWO while the operational expenditures are borne by the operating organization.

Achievement

Success of Rashidabad lies in the spirit of cooperation and resource sharing which is evident from the various organizations working under Rashidabad.
