08 October 2016 marked 11 years since the tragic earthquake of 2005 which claimed thousands of lives all over Azad Kashmir. KORT held an annual rally in Mirpur to remember and pray for those who lost their lives.

Dentists from the Dental Aid Network (DAN), UK, were back at KORT in October as part of their dental mission and collaboration with KORT to provide dental checks and treatments for the orphan children.

We pride ourselves on the fact that we treat the orphan children in our care just like we treat our own children at home.
For this reason we decided to hold an Eid Al Adha Mela (funfair) on the safe and secure grounds of the KORT Educational Complex for the first time as there isn’t a big enough park in Mirpur to host all of our orphan children all at one time.

Alhamdulillah, with the support of our donors, QURBANI meat was distributed amongst hundreds of poor and needy families in the region of Mirpur. Thank you and well done to all the MUSKORTEERS in Mirpur for managing this project successfully.

Thanks to Newcastle City Council and the Newcastle Mela Committee who awarded KORT the main slot as a charity to raise awareness about our cause and our orphan children.

Our team of MUSKORTEERS from all over the country dedicated their precious time and made all sorts of sacrifices to sell chocolate fudge cakes and raised £52,365.25 for the orphan children of KORT.

Thanks to our loving donors, each child at KORT received a new pair of clothes, footwear and a toy for Eid. The children were delighted to wear their new clothes and raced to the hall to collect their toys.

Ramadhan 2016 was even more special for KORT as it was our first Ramadhan at the KORT Educational Complex!
There was a spiritual atmosphere throughout Ramadhan with children fasting, reciting Quran and performing Taraweeh prayers in the evening.

KORT Educational Complex was declared officially open. Donate to orphans or Sponsor orphans for Care for Orphans.

The Former Prime Minister of Azad Kashmir Sardar Attique Ahmed Khan visited KORT to see what we had achieved with the land he generously donated to us back in 2007.
