37 SCHEMES LAUNCHED Programme for Taking Care of One Hundred Orphans In January 1991, Hazrat rta launched a fund to help orphans. This fund continues even today. This scheme was named Kafaalat Yaksad-Yataama which means taking care of one hun- dred orphans, but that was just the beginning. Now, by the grace of God, millions of orphans have been helped through this fund and this scheme is ongoing. Maryam Shadi Fund On 21 February 2003, during the Friday sermon, Hazrat Khalifatul- Masih IV rta launched a scheme to provide help with the marriages of poor Ahmadi girls. In a sermon on 28 February, Hazrat Khalifatul- Masih IV rta named this scheme the Maryam Shadi Fund. This was the final programme launched by Huzoor rta. This fund continues to grow and, insha’Allah, always will. An amazing fact is that the first and final schemes Huzoor rta launched were to help the poor.
