People like Dr. Amjab Saqib should be celebrated daily. Not only is he a social entrepreneur, public servant and an author, he is also the founder of Akhuwat Foundation, the world’s largest Islamic microfinance organization. He started his career with the civil service where he worked for the Punjab Rural Support Program (PRSP). When he resigned from civil service, he realized he wanted to devote his life wholly to the welfare of the public. This is when he was inspired to start Akhuwat through which he aimed to eradicate poverty. Akhuwat has expanded into fields of education and health and extends support primarily to the marginalized groups of the community. Dr. Amjab Saqib is also notable for extending consulting expertise to various leading international organizations including UNICEF, ILO, USAID, World Bank and other public service organizations in Pakistan.

Sarmad Khoosat is prominently known as an actor, film/TV director, screenwriter and producer. His TV dramas, “Humsafar” and “Sher-e-Zaat” were a great hit.

His upcoming feature film, “Zindagi Tamasha” has been getting a lot of attention at international film festivals but the film couldn’t be released in Pakistan and Khoosat even faced death threats from religious circles.
