Three women in Karachi left their eight beloved children(Boys/Girls) to Edhi Home center in its Metadhar office in Lyari due to extreme poverty as they could not feed them having no source of income, said the head of Edhi Foundation, Abdul Sattar Edhi, while talking to media here on Thursday.

While talking to reporters, Edhi said that three women left their children at his head office because they cannot provide food to them.

He refused to disclose the names of the mothers of eight children whom they left at Edhi home, adding, that the women told him that they were living in extreme poverty and did not have any source of income.

These eight children's three fathers are jobless and not well.
