Imran Khan - Pakistan's Captain?

Imran Khan is a legendary cricketer who is idolized not only by Pakistani's but cricket fans all over the world. He set out on a mission to establish a cancer hospital for his country-men when he realized that there was no hospital that could provide state of the art care for cancer patients in Pakistan.

After he announced his project the donations started pouring in. He was able to mobilize students to sell donation tickets. Those who were able to collect a thousand rupees had the pleasure of meeting the legend in person. I cannot forget the happiness on my young brothers face when he came back after meeting a true Pakistani hero and legend Imran Khan. I do remember that before the deadline my brother was worried that he will not be able to finish selling all the tickets. My father not a wealthy man bought all the remaining tickets.

Shaukat Khanum Memorial hospital provides state of the art care to all regardless of socioeconomic status and has gained high repute for its excellence in providing care to the needy.
People are indebted for the great service this hospital provides.

Imran Khan has proven time and again that he not only he was the captain of our Cricket team but is a captain for 'Pakistan'.
