About SHINE Humanity Pakistan

• Founded in 2009 by a group of Pakistani-American doctors and entrepreneurs based out of Tustin, California, SHINE Humanity was formed to repay the debt they owe to Pakistan. SHINE Humanity’s mission is to provide compassionate and sustainable preventative and primary healthcare to the underserved by collaborating with key partners.

  SHINE Humanity Pakistan was registered under the Societies Act 1860 in 2013 to move the mission forward and implement it in Pakistan.
