Tasneem Bandukwala, is a renowned name in Rotary and Jaycees circle. Rotary and Jaycee are two well-organised and well-known voluntary organizations known for their charitable work across the globe.

On the eve of International Mothers’ Day, we have highlighted a story on this remarkable lady written by a US-based Rotarian which was published in a US-based newspaper.

Tasneem Bandukwala interrupted a visit to her son who lives in Beaverton, Oregon, to bring special thanks to residents of our area who helped her with the final dollars needed to complete three humanitarian projects in her native Karachi, Pakistan. Tasneem is heralded in her country as the first woman to be invited to become a member of the Jaycees in Pakistan when she was in her 20s and raising three children.
