Message from General Secretary
Generosity doesn’t have to be a material like a gift or money. Sometimes generosity is as simple as offering a smile or taking a few extra minutes to talk to someone who needs it.
Real generosity is doing something nice for someone who will never find out.
You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you.
It is said that you can’t take it with you; I say there are two things you can take with you: the things you do for others and the things you do to others.
DaeimSocial Welfare Society comprises of three wings; the blood wing, patient care wing, and student care wing. It provides a range of activities that includes a Funfair, blood donation drive, an annual medical camp, fundraiser movie nights, Iftar Drives in Ramazanand an Eid Clothes and Gifts Drive for orphans in orphanages all over Peshawar.
Our goal is produce doctors that are compassionate, and have an eye for the underprivileged around us, and we believe that Daeimwill be a desirable model for all the welfare societies in the region.

Message of the secretary
“Do you know what my favorite part of the game is? It’s the Opportunity to play!”
Heywood Broun said, “Sports does not build character it reveals it”, so other than curriculum based activities, co-curricular sports help us express our emotions and feelings freely and that’s why Northwest School of Medicine gladly introduced the Sports Society in it’s founding year 2017.
Designed to improve team spirit, physical and mental health the Sports Society has previously arranged Annual Sports Week; weeks filled with excitement,thrill and fun.
Inter-class games such as outdoor: football, cricket,volleyball, basketball, athletics and indoor: ludo, chess, table tennis and much more have been organized by hard working students and supporting authorities and staff members, some of which are soon to be extended as inter-college matches Inshah-Allah.
Our aspiration is to inspire the present and future batches of NWSM to convert their sedentary lifestyles into a vibrant, refreshed and non-biased atmosphere.
To Sport Discipline the body and mind to co-operate with frenemies is the prime objective of the Sports Society as, “Victory is in the quality of competition and not the final score”–Mike Marshall; however certificates or prizes are usually awarded to the teams for group efforts

Message from General Secretary:
In the medical profession, the responsibility of making life-altering decisions for patients necessitates a thorough reliance on evidence and research. It is imperative for every physician to possess the fundamental skills to engage in research endeavors, thereby contributing to the collective knowledge base or, at the very least, comprehending it sufficiently to make well-informed judgments. At NSRS, our objective is to integrate students into the realm of research from the outset, fostering their comprehension and proficiency in this domain. As the General Secretary of NSRS for the year 2024, nothing would bring me greater satisfaction than witnessing my peers excel in and grasp the essence of research.
