Lahore, January 26, 2025 – The scenic fairways of Royal Palm Golf & Country Club Lahore played host to the 10th Annual Fast Cables-Indus Hospital Golf Tournament 2025, where sportsmanship and philanthropy came together in support of Indus Hospital & Health Network’s (IHHN) Emergency and OPD Services.

This year’s tournament brought together corporate leaders, golf enthusiasts, and philanthropists, all committed to making quality healthcare accessible to underserved communities. The Four-Ball Texas Scramble format ensured an engaging and competitive day on the greens, with participants striving for excellence while championing a noble cause.

Dr. Abdul Bari Khan, President of IHHN, expressed his gratitude to the participants and sponsors:

Funds raised through the tournament will help IHHN provide life-saving medical care to over 500,000 patients every month across Pakistan. The event also spotlighted the expansion of IHHN’s flagship Korangi Campus in Karachi, which is set to grow from 300 beds to a state-of-the-art 1,350-bed tertiary care hospital—an essential step in addressing Pakistan’s rising healthcare needs.
