Our History



Our History:

Gurase Valley in District Neelum is a remote access & backward area, the socio economic condition of community is very poor. There is poor condition of Education, Health, Road, Communication, Electricity and infrastructure. Literacy rate is low as compared to all districts of State of Azad Jammu & Kashmir. Due to remote access and poor infrastructure conditions NGOs hesitate to work here due to remote access while Government and Politicians have neglected the area.
That’s why it has been decided to establish a focal platform to work for the deserving & people and disadvantaged vulnerable Communities. Mr. Khurram Jamal Shahid and his social worker fellows join hands to serve humanity through development & welfare. Thus “Sustainable Development Organization (SDO) is established in District Neelum (Valley) in 2009.
