During the period April to June 2010, an intensive fund collection drive was organised in which the KMT team collected small donations from individuals over a period of two months. In return for each Rs. 100 donation, the donor was given a receipt coupon, the number of which was entered into a lucky draw. 13 attractive prizes were generously donated for the draw by various companies and businesses, namely Holiday Inn Lahore, Costco Islamabad, Acer Computers, Eclipse Restaurant Islamabad, Des Pardes Restaurant Islamabad, Chopsticks Restaurant Islamabad, Planet X Studios Islamabad, Illusions Islamabad and Adventure Foundation Islamabad. KMT is grateful to each one of these contributors for helping us compile an excellent prize list for our draw.

The drive was an immense success, bringing in Rs. 440,000 in revenues for KMT. Subtracting our printing and organisational costs of Rs. 40,000, this effort netted a total of Rs. 400,000 for KMT in profit. The fund collection drive was closed on June 30, with the draw scheduled for July 3 at the Kaghan Memorial School. Although this date falls in the next quarter, we can report that the draw had been conducted at the time of publishing of this newsletter. KMS students very excitedly picked out the winning numbers during the School’s annual medical camp, and winning numbers were subsequently posted on the KMT website. All prizes have since been claimed by the very happy winners.
