Event Date: 2025-09-30
A 16-year-old Japanese girl (Hikari Kiran Shah Tokunaga) has taken an extraordinary step to assist flood-affected families in Multan by distributing mosquito nets to protect them from dengue and other mosquito-borne diseases.
Demonstrating compassion beyond her years, Hikari raised funds to purchase mosquito nets and personally distributed them among the communities most vulnerable to outbreaks. Her initiative comes at a critical time, as health experts warn of a possible surge in dengue cases following the recent floods.
This is not her first humanitarian effort. Alongside distributing essential supplies, she has been writing children’s books that raise awareness about dengue prevention and polio eradication. By using storytelling as an educational tool, she aims to empower young readers to play an active role in safeguarding their health.
Local residents and community leaders in Multan expressed gratitude for her contribution, noting that such gestures of solidarity bring both practical relief and emotional encouragement.
Her dedication reflects the growing role of youth in humanitarian work, showing how determination and empathy can make a meaningful difference across borders. This collaboration between Hikari and NWA underscores how youth-led initiatives, supported by local leadership, can provide practical solutions in times of crisis.
