Every detail was thoughtfully planned to ensure the celebration was both festive and meaningful. The warm ambiance, glowing lights, and colorful decor reflected the enthusiasm and hope with which the new year was welcomed.
A Night to Remember

As the clock struck midnight, a joyous cake-cutting ceremony marked the arrival of 2025. The laughter and cheers echoed through the center, as everyone joined together to welcome the new year with excitement and optimism. The moment was made even more special by the collective prayers that followed, as we sought blessings for health, happiness, and success in the coming year.
Celebrating Achievements
The New Year Celebration was not just about welcoming 2025; it was also a moment to recognize and celebrate the outstanding achievements of our talented boarders. Faryal Nawaz, Quratulain, and Samra Aziz made us immensely proud by earning bronze medals in the Josh Games. Their accomplishments added a sense of pride and inspiration to the event. These young individuals exemplify the spirit of perseverance and excellence that SHAD Foundation aims to nurture in all its members.

Together, we prayed for the well-being and success of our boarders, the growth of the Youth Development Center, and the continued prosperity of our community. The prayers were a reminder of the values that SHAD Foundation upholds—compassion, unity, and dedication to personal and communal development.
