We want to connect with Pakistani Diaspora and encourage them to join our cause of nation building through donations, and ambassadorship.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are interested in learning more about NUST and its various initiatives for talented students please join us at the event dated above.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>For the Event Please RSVP<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mr. Azhar Raja\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0VP PICO\u00a0 &#8211; (602) 329 1947<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Tehmoor Dar &#8211; Secretary General NUSTIAN (512) 284-3256<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mr. Haider Rizvi\u00a0 &#8211;\u00a0 (480) 435 7444<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Farooq Chaudhry\u00a0 &#8211; (602) 819 2200<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mr. Javaid Ikram\u00a0 &#8211; (480) 307 3881<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_counters\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/dot.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top:2px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_c=new Array(\"twitter\",\"facebook_like\",\"facebook_send\",\"google\");var hupso_counters_lang = \"en_US\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_c=\"\";var hupso_title_c=\"Lunch%20Reception%20in%20Honor%20of%20Pakistani%20Diaspora%20in%20Phoenix%20-%20Sunday%2C%2023rd%20June%202019\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/counters.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please RSVP if planning to attend the luncheon.
