Activities

Ambulances

The Chhipa Welfare Association runs a number of ambulance centres in Karachi. The ambulances are basic vans with room for a stretcher, for transportation to a hospital but without any medical staff in the ambulance.[2]

CHHIPA AMBULANCE. The beacon of the enormous humanitarian services of Chhipa Welfare Association, with the largest fleet of highly dedicated fleet of ambulances, manned by paramedics and equipped with first aid box and oxygen cylinder, spread over CHHIPA AMBULANCE EMERGENCY CENTRES located at prominent places, at various roundabouts and near Government Hospitals across Mega City of Karachi and other regions of Pakistan, on alert––around the clock all year around––for Rapid Rescue and Relief, providing immediate help and assistance to the needy, the seriously injured victims of road accidents, train collisions, disasters and calamities, shifting the sick, people suffering and emergency patients, rushing them to hospitals and medical facilities

While the responding time is within 05 minutes, which further initiates the rescue operation without any delay. Chhipa Ambulances are always on the alert and ready to face any untoward emergency situation.

Normally, Chhipa Ambulances––24 hours/7 days a week––remain engaged on roads in lifting and shifting the seriously injured victims of road accidents, the needy, the sick, burnt out and severed body parts, emergency patients, partially decomposed and unidentified abandoned, decomposed and mutilated bodies, lying in drains and sewers, dead bodies––to hospitals & medical centres in attempts to save the valuable human lives, all taken care off by Chhipa Volunteers. The Rescue Team of Chhipa Ambulance daily saves numerous precious human lives.

Palna

The association provides a means for people who are unable to care for their newborn children to give them up for adoption, as an alternative to abandoning the child, and to lessen the risk of infanticide. The ambulance centers include a palna (lit. "cradle") where people can leave their babies; the Chhipa Association can then arrange for the infant to be adopted.

Social Worker Ramzan Chhipa is the first legal guardian until after a married childless couple is handed the infant for adoption. Chhipa Welfare Association maintains the complete record and the legality of all such unwanted children that are placed in Chhipa Jhoola. After the married childless couple has been selected, the child is then handed over to them in a simple adoption ceremony at the Chhipa Head Office. After that Social Worker Ramzan Chhipa regularly visits the homes of the adopting parents and monitors the well-being and upbringing of the adopted child.

Sacrificial animals

The ambulance centers also accept animals that have been sacrificed on the occasion of a child's birth (Aqiqah) or as other forms of voluntary charity (Sadaqah). These sacrifices are prepared as food for people with a low-income.
