Organisations & Jamaats in Pakistan
The largest network of Memon organisations globally
Pakistan is home to the largest network of Memon organisations in the world. Following partition, these bodies played a nation-building role, establishing hospitals and educational institutions that serve the entire country.
Key Bodies
The All Pakistan Memon Federation (APMF) coordinates hundreds of smaller Jamaats. The Edhi Foundation, founded by Abdul Sattar Edhi (a Memon), is a global symbol of humanitarianism. The Memon Medical Institute in Karachi represents community excellence in healthcare.
Scale of Operations
Memon organisations run some of the country's largest charity hospitals, ambulance networks, and disaster relief operations. Vocational training centres empower thousands of youth annually. While Karachi is the hub, significant organisations also operate in Hyderabad and Sukkur.
Community Jamaat Structure
Each sub-group — Okhai, Kutchi, Halai, Bantva — maintains its own Jamaat in Karachi, managing community centres, graveyards, and welfare funds specific to their clan, while also contributing to the wider Pakistan Memon federation.
