In last 9 years, more than 4200 beneficiaries have been awarded certificates. Sofia got the permission to put up a stall of calligraphy in Hunar Haat. Since calligraphy is an international art, the camp was widely appreciated by the audience and was quite a success. We managed to generate good sale there. Various activities are conducted throughout the year in calligraphy and graphic design. Sofia is running an authorized study centre of Urdu since last year, and Arabic and calligraphic design since past three years.
