Friends of Karachi
A vibrant community of Karachiites keeping traditions, memories, and support alive — right here in Ontario.
“Unity, Culture, and Support — From Karachi to Canada.”
Welcome to Friends of Karachi
Friends of Karachi is more than a group
— it’s a feeling of home.
We are a growing community of individuals and families originally from Karachi, now living across Canada, who come together to celebrate our shared culture, offer support, and strengthen lifelong friendships. Whether you’re new to Canada or have lived here for years, you’re welcome here.
