Operation Shifa – dedicated to Nasreen Koor

My beloved friend Nasreen Koor had the most beautiful loving heart. She lived her life to the fullest. Whatever she did in life, she always gave 200% commitment to it.She travelled, she bunjee jumped, she sky dived. She worked and played.   When it was time to settle down, this city girl relocated to a plaas town and dedicated her life to be a loving wife and mother. I was surprised that she adapted to this role to easily.  I remember the first day I met her, it was my first day at varsity. Friendly, warm person. Making you feel welcome in this strange concrete jungle of  Jozi.
In 2010 her nephew and niece required stem cell operations. Yet again, she went full steam ahead and tried her best to ensure everyone she knew would be involved to assist with helping raise funds for these operations. During this campaign, we discussed starting an organisation where we could assist others in similar situations to get the much needed exposure and call it Operation Shifa. Unfortunately, Nasreen’s life has ended suddenly in January 2012 but her intention to start this organisation still lives on. I have decided to start this initiative in her memory so we can always remember her and make dua for her. Operation Shifa is started for the esale thawaab of Nasreen Koor and her son Mohamed Zareef Dawood. We loved Nasreen, miss her dearly especially commenting on our Ask Nanima facebook page. We ask Allah to grant her the highest forms of Jannah and peace in the grave inshaAllah.
