One Rupee Project

What is One Rupee Project?

Pakistan has never been able to get out of its basic domestic issues, and we never stop hearing the government, politicians and media talking about curtailing them. From violence to security problems, and education to unemployment, we've never really addressed ANY issue with the utmost urgency and importance it really required. It's over 60 years since independence, and the ditch is getting deeper by the day. Why? Because the power game survives on exploitation of the hungry, shelterless, unemployed and uneducated population of this country. Things are never going to change until all of us get up do something about it ourselves as ONE unit.

The One Rupee Project is NOT a political party, but a NON-PROFIT movement and a silent revolution to make every Pakistani citizen self-sustainable in the next 10 years. And this is only possible when all of us unite, and contribute a little from our lives everyday.

YOU can BRING the change. YOU can BE the change. And to become part of this movement, we just ask you to contribute ONE rupee a day, everyday, to make this huge task possible.

Show your SUPPORT by LIKING our Facebook Page, FOLLOWING us on Twitter, and by leaving your Contact details with us to show your SUPPORT. We're launching on the 23rd of March 2012, and we need your support to make this happen!

About Us

We are a group of students, activists, professionals and above all, Pakistanis, who are enthusiastic to bring about a major change in Pakistan. A change that we have always expected. A change that we have always talked about.

Lack of self-sustainability, unemployment and education is the root cause of all issues in Pakistan, and with the 'One Rupee Project' we want to spark a silent revolution among all Pakistanis to unite and work towards one common goal: making everyone in Pakistan self-sustainable.

Join us, and lets unite to BRING this change and BE the change.

Pakistan Zindabad!

Why worried? I am not affected !!!

Why worried? I am not affected !!!

This is what comes in our mind when we got saved and/or not harmed by any calamity or disaster that hit our neighbourhood.  At one point, we think that this could have been me but very next moment, we let that thought go and think that thank God we’re not those who got affected. We always try to escape and seek any comfort zone in such catastrophic incidents… but my question is  why we forget that this could have been me, my family, my kids, my parents, my relatives, my neighbours ???

The past 7 days have been one of the toughest the country has faced in recent memory and all of us have been affected either through association with the people who lost their lives in a tragic air crash or by just feeling the grief of the entire nation.

We all know that in the face of adversity, our entire Nation has historically risen to the challenge, be it the earthquake or the IDP crisis where every single Pakistani contributed funds, clothes, drinking water, food items and time.

My brothers and sisters, time has come again to rise up to the challenges. The issues faced this time are complex. There is a noose of grief around our neck. The water levels are preventing people from accessing areas therefore food and first aid is difficult to get across.

Lot of people have been coordinating with welfare agencies on how to overcome the issue , helicopters are US$ 3000 per hour and are not large enough to carry goods and each trip will take hours. Unfortunately events are moving so fast that NGO’s and disaster management outfits have currently no clue as to the extent of damage and how much it will cost to replace or repair it.

In this heart-trodden scenario, TOGETHER  we can help alleviate the suffering of all that have been effected by this calamity. Alone neither you nor I can make a difference, together even if we save ONE life we save humanity.

I on behalf of my entire Pakistan Youth Renaissance (PYR) Team request all of you to please come forward to volunteer time, items or money towards the relief efforts on a collective basis.

PYR can assure you that our members will personally visit the places to ensure that your funds have been properly utilized.
