Shaniera Akram spent her Sunday afternoon in the most beautiful way. ‘The Akram Foundation,’ led by both Wasim and Shaniera Akram hosted a marathon in Karachi at ‘Moin Khan Cricket Academy’ in support of Special Olympics. The ‘Run Walk’ was held earlier in the morning to raise awareness and funds for Pakistan’s special needs community. Shaniera was one of the runners as she represented ‘The Akram Foundation’ along with fellow volunteers.

Shaniera later took to Instagram to post the success of the run, as she crossed the finish line with a helping hand from a few little girls

It was a joyous occasion, and a monumental achievement for the foundation, as it seeks to raise cognizance for the special needs community


The finish line was a team effort and a heartfelt end to the marathon with an embrace and two girls who made it all the more endearing

‘The Akram Foundation’ has keyed in on raising funds for underprivileged children through fundraisers, free education facilities in more rural areas like Landhi and clean water initiatives in Karachi districts.
