We are a not-for-profit organization providing free Artificial Limbs, reconstructive surgery, cleft lips, palates, burns related and clean drinking water filters In the beginning HASWA started by arranging Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons to come from the USA to perform free surgeries for Children with Post Burn deformities. Subsequently in partnership with organizations in Houston, Texas HA
SWA sponsored and sent children to the USA for plastic surgery at the Shriners Hospital Galveston. The Second project that HASWA undertook in partnership with Smile Train of New York, USA was to provide free reconstructive surgeries to children born with congenital deformities – Cleft Lip and Palate. Hundreds of Children have been operated upon and their deformities corrected by highly qualified plastic and reconstructive surgeons. The Third major project is the Artificial Limb Center. Here in partnership with the Jaipur Foot organization of Jaipur, India and the Rotary Club of Karachi, HASWA provides free prosthetic Artificial Limbs and Calipers to the needy. Thousands of people have been provided free limbs in the last 11 years COMPLETELY FREE OF COST. The Fourth project is Speech Therapy Center in collaboration with the University of Karachi and the Rotary Club of Karachi. Here speech therapy is provided free of charge specifically to children with congenital deformities. The Fifth project that HASWA has undertaken in collaboration with Forward Movement of Houston Texas is the Clean Water Project.
