In India we have built a Hospital known as Mata Nanki Charitable Hospital in rural area of Punjab. We also operate and maintain a Sikh Gurdwara with a Nursery School known as Bibi Balwant Kaur Memorial School. We also provide Computer, Sewing and music classes. Every year we organise Athletics, help poor people by organising their weddings and provide all the necessary material and goods to enable the newly wedded to set up home. Our funds are raised by ladies singing Hymns at peoples’ homes ( Sat Sungs) all offerings and donations are used for the charitable work a tradition started by the founder in Nairobi, Kenya in 1947. The founder was well respected by the people of Kenya, India and UK with honour s bestowed on her by the President of Kenya Arap Moyee, The help the aged by a presentation of Gold Award, and by the British Government by making her a Member of British Empire. At Anandpur Sahib, Mata Nanki Charitable Hospital this year alone we provided medical help to over 2000 patients and replaced 200 eye lenses and as many again had their cataracts removed. All our office holders and members do this work on voluntary bases, they do not even ask for expenses. They would go to India or any other place using their own funds, so we are fortunate in this respect. They do this in respect and reverence to our founder late Mrs. Balwant Kaur Soor MBE known as Bibi Jee.
