Jubilee Life Insurance, Pakistan's largest private sector life insurance company, organized a special event under its campaign 'Lights. Camera. Inclusion' to honour parents and caregivers of persons with disabilities (PWDs). The initiative, held in collaboration with the Karachi Vocational Training Centre (KVTC) and the Karachi Down Syndrome Program (KDSP), brought together PWDs, their families, community partners, and stakeholders from ConnectHear and NOWPDP.
Celebrating Unsung Heroes
The event was designed to mark Mother's Day and Father's Day in a meaningful way, going beyond traditional celebrations. Through an inclusive movie experience, Jubilee Life created a space where families could share moments and feel valued. Javed Ahmed, Managing Director & CEO of Jubilee Life Insurance, stated: 'Behind every person who overcomes barriers and reaches their potential is often a parent or caregiver whose love, resilience, and determination have never wavered. Through this initiative, we wanted to celebrate those individuals whose contributions are rarely in the spotlight but whose impact is immeasurable.'
Acknowledging Support Systems
Farukh Iftekhar, Group Head HRMD at Jubilee Life Insurance, added: 'True inclusion extends beyond the workplace. While the achievements of persons with disabilities are increasingly recognized, the journey behind those achievements often remains unseen. For many families, it is a journey defined by perseverance, advocacy, sacrifice, and unconditional love.' The initiative aimed to acknowledge the everyday acts of strength that shape lives and open doors to opportunity.
Commitment to Inclusion
The event is part of Jubilee Life's broader Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) agenda and aligns with the company's Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitments. Through sustained partnerships with organizations advancing inclusion and accessibility, Jubilee Life continues to champion opportunities for persons with disabilities and their families to thrive.
