Mr. Maseeh was working at the Balochistan House, Pakistan, as a sweeper and was on duty during the Islamabad Marriott Hotel bomb blast of 2008. This bomb blast shattered him; not only did he lose all his life savings and belongings but also lost all hope for a good future. Mr. Maseeh’s left leg was surgically removed and he was not able to walk. Being the sole bread earner of the family, it became difficult for his family to survive. Under the Hashoo Health Program, Hashoo Trust (HT) provided him with a monthly stipend and continues to do so. Hashoo Trust also referred him to a renowned orthopedic center in the city, where he was treated to get artificial limbs.
Today, Khushi Maseeh can walk on his own feet and works full time at the Marriott hotel.
