ZTFE FUNDRAISING GALA NIGHT

IN AID OFB. D. PETIT PARSEE GENERAL

HOSPITALZartoshty Brothers Hall

Zoroastrian Centre LondonSaturday 11th October 2014

The Zoroastrian Trust Funds of Europe Incorporated is truly indebted to the Late Zartoshty Brothers, our patrons and benefactors, and members of their families for their immense support. The interest of the Late Zartoshty Brothers in the welfare of the Zoroastrian Community in the United Kingdom and Europe and indeed Zoroastrian communities throughout the World was admirable. Their generosity and munificent donations have surpassed the normal duty of a Zoroastrian for Charity.

The support and benevolence of the Zartoshty Brothers and their families is exemplary in the history of our Association. The ZTFE was able to purchase and renovate the heritage listed Grade II* Zoroastrian Centre, because of their support! Mobed Mehraban formally inaugurated the Zoroastrian Centre in 2005, on the occasion of the Eight World Zoroastrian Congress, hosted by the ZTFE with the patronage of the Zartoshty Brothers and their families. Their munificent donations to the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London, has been acknowledged and honoured by them with the inclusion of the names of the Zartoshty Brothers on the Donor Board displayed in the foyer – entrance of the SOAS building. It was their endowment, together with the £1 million bequest from the MHBKHF Trust Funds connected to the late Professor Emeritus Mary Boyce, which created “the Zartoshty Professorship” in Zoroastrianism in the Department of the Study of Religions, SOAS. This has ensured the continuity of the advancement of the study and understanding of Zoroastrianism at SOAS in perpetuity. The Zartoshty Brothers inspired the ZTFE to core fund “The Everlasting Flame: Zoroastrianism in History and Imagination” exhibition in 2013 at SOAS and sponsoring the exhibition catalogue dedicated to their memory.The B. D. Petit Parsee General Hospital, Mumbai was very close to the hearts of the Zartoshty Brothers. The Petit family had donated large sums of money to ameliorate the Zoroastrians of Iran in the 19th century. The Zartoshty Brothers had funded the building of a wing and also donated large sums towards the hospital. Their generosity has been the catalyst for our Association to establish, “ZTFE Friends of B. D. Parsee General Hospital”.

May the Zartoshty Brothers continue to bless us from their heavenly abode in Garothman Behesht. May the fravashis of Mobed Faridoon and Mobed Mehraban always come to our assistance whenever they are invoked! Amen.

Message from Homa Zartoshty

On behalf of my family, I send best wishes to all participants of the Gala Night in aid of the B D Petit Parsee General Hosipital. My compliments to Homa and Aban Petit. I recall very fondly my visit to London last year when I met so many friends at ZTFE and at SOAS. Thank you for all that you do and thank you for always remembering the example of the Zartoshty Brothers. Homa Zartoshty

Dear ZTFE members and friends

The Zoroastrian Trust Funds of Europe (ZTFE) was established in 1861 when Seth Muncherji Hormasji Cama appealed to Dr Dadabhai Naoroji and others to set up a religious fund to benefit Zoroastrians in Europe. Today, the ZTFE remains the oldest established Asian religious voluntary organisation in the United Kingdom.

It is my great pleasure to welcome you all today to the Zartoshty Brothers Hall for our Gala Night in aid the B. D. Petit Parsee General Hospital. We in the UK are blessed to have the National Health Service! However, in many countries, including India, it is a different story. The 103 years old Seth Bomanji Dinshaw Petit Parsee General Hospital, performs yeoman service for the Zoroastrian community. Over half the patients are treated completely free. Thus the hospital constantly relies on donations from the community.

The B. D. Petit Parsee General Hospital was very close to the hearts of the Late Zartoshty Brothers, our patrons and benefactors. The Petit family had donated large sums of money to ameliorate the Zoroastrians of Iran in the 19th century. The Zartoshty Brothers had funded the building of a wing and also donated large sums towards the hospital. The idea came from my predecessor Dorab E Mistry to establish the “ZTFE Friends of B. D. Parsee General Hospital, Mumbai”. On the auspicious day of Meher mah Meher roj, Saturday 1st March 2014, the ZTFE commenced raising funds for the hospital.

I am also delighted that the ZTFE will felicitate today Mr Sarosh Zaiwalla on the successful completion of 30 years of the law firm Zaiwalla & Company in the City of London. Through the last 35 years Mr Zaiwalla has supported the ZTFE in our various endeavours and appeals.

On behalf of the Managing Committee and Trustees, I welcome Aban and Homa Petit on this grand occasion and hope we shall all have a most enjoyable night.

Khshnaothra Ahurahe Mazdāo!

Message from Gareth Thomas MP for Harrow WestMy best wishes to the fund raising campaign for the B D Petit Parsee General Hospital in Mumbai. ZTFE and Zoroastrian Centre do so much in the UK and it is very commendable they have taken up this cause in Mumbai.

Mr Gareth Richard Thomas MP. for Harrow West and Shadow Minister for Europe and Founder Secretary of the Zoroastrian All

Party Parliamentary Group

Having grown up in Mumbai, I am aware of the work done by the B D Petit Parsee General Hospital, its splendid Heritage buildings and its gardens. My wife and I are delighted to participate in this Gala Night organised by our dear friends in ZTFE.

Message from Mr Navin Shah Member of the London Assembly

Message from Lord Karan Faridoon Bilimoria CBE, DL

Lord Karan Bilimoria CBE, DL. Founder and Chairman of Cobra Beer

and the Zoroastrian All Party Parliamentary Group

I congratulate the Zoroastrian Trust Funds of Europe on taking up the cause of the B D Petit Parsee General Hospital of Mumbai. This Hospital is a great community icon and deserves the fullest support from the diaspora. Having met Mr Homa Petit, I admire his dedication and the work undertaken by him, his family and his fellow trustees. I send my best wishes to ZTFE for the success of the Gala Night.

THE BOMANJEE DINSHAW PETIT PARSEE GENERAL HOSPITALA HERITAGE JEWEL OVER 102 YEARS OLD

The annals of the B. D. Petit Parsee General Hospital represent a facet of a bygone era in the history of the Parsis as a story of compassion and charity care. More than a century ago, the prestigious “Cumballa Hill Family Hotel” Property was donated by an eminent philanthropist and industrialist Seth Bomanji Dinshaw Petit, who envisioned a munificent hospital that would serve the needs of the Parsi Community in Mumbai. Thus began the legendary crusade of his son Jehangir Bomanji Petit of fulfilling his father’s dream of a Parsi Community Hospital, wherein, a Trust Deed dated 12th April 1906 was executed. Taking the lead, young Jehangir went about working passionately for the Hospital Project and on 27th March 1912, the prestigious Hospital was inaugurated by Sir George Clarke, the then Governor of Bombay.

After Jehangir’s glorious contribution, his younger brother, Dhunjibhoy and his son Maneckji carried on with his vision with similar enthusiasm. Maneckji’s cousin Dinshawji Hormusji Petit, a solicitor by profession, took over after his demise and today his son, Mr. Homa D. Petit, also a solicitor, is the President of the Hospital and is poised along with the Managing Committee to take the benevolent Institution into the future. He and the Hospital’s Managing Committee meet regularly to review the Hospital’s day to day affairs ensuring a smooth and orderly functioning of the Institute. Under his guidance the Hospital has undergone a sea change, wherein, all the three wings of the ‘L’ Shaped Hospital i.e. Main Wing, ‘A’ Wing and the ‘Jokhi’ Wing, each with ground floor plus two levels have been renovated/updated during the last two decades. Homa has been ably assisted by Mrs. Aban H. Petit, Vice President.

RESTORATION & REFURBISHMENTThe first phase of updating the “Jokhi” Wing took place between 1991 and 1995 through the munificent donation of Rs.45 million by Mr. Keki F. Jokhi – Shapoor F. Jokhi Charitable Foundation. This wing houses a State-of-the-art Intensive Care Unit on the 2nd floor with 16 beds and a central monitoring system. On the first floor there are 4 ultra modern Operating Theatres while on the ground floor there are Departments of Radiology, Ultrasonography, Electrocardiography and Pathology, each equipped with the latest equipment in the respective field.

The “A” wing was renovated in 1999 at a cost of Rs.80 millions through 3 generous donations from Zartoshty Brothers of Canada, Mr. Keki F. Jokhi – Shapoor F. Jokhi Charitable Foundation and The Incorporated Trustees of the Zoroastrian Charity Funds of Hong Kong, Canton & Macao. It was commissioned in the year 2002. It won the prestigious Heritage Award for the year 2002.. It houses 61 single occupancy rooms with attached toilets and baths. A number of the rooms are air-conditioned with TV sets and telephone facilities with vast corridors in front and overlooking a lush green garden, a rare sight in South Mumbai. A modern Labour and Delivery Room on the first floor handles maternity cases.

The renovation of the Main Wing commenced in 2004 and was inaugurated in March 2009 at an estimated cost of Rs.195 millions. The Ground Floor named as Nusly Petit Wing [Sir Dinshaw Petit, 4th Baronet] has been renovated from the donation received from the Trustees of F. D. Petit Sanatorium Trust and accommodates the Reception Area, Medical Stores, Pharmacy, Administrative Office, Physiotherapy Department, Casualty and Offices of Senior Executives and a State-of-the-Art Conference Room.

The First Floor of the Main Wing is named the Hong Kong Wing as it was renovated from the generous donations from the Incorporated Trustees of the Zoroastrian Charity funds of Hong Kong Canton & Macao and donations from the Estate of Late Feroze Sorab Wadia. It houses Free Female and Male as well as Geriatric Patients.

The Second Floor named the ‘Maneck Italia Wing’ accommodates subsidised patients. It was renovated from the munificent donation made by Mr. Keki F. Jokhi – Shapoor F. Jokhi Charitable Foundation, and donations from the Estate of Late Mr. Jamshed P Munsiff

The prestigious Pallonji Shapoorji Home for Senior Citizens of the B D Petit Parsee General Hospital was inaugurated in 2007 at an approximate cost of Rs.56.75 millions. It accommodates senior citizens 65+ in homely rooms with excellent facilities for all sections of our Community.

As a part of renovation and up gradation, the entire support

infrastructure and ancillaries of the hospital were upgraded to meet the needs of a modern hospital.

In addition to the ‘L’ shaped 3 wings, the Hospital site is also home to a Nursing School, Laundry, Nutrition Department, Out Patient Department, doctors’ quarters and nurses hostel. Plans are afoot for an ultra modern OPD building.

The Hospital Coat of Arms “We Serve” on its wrought iron gates sums up the motto of the hospital committee members and the staff. As you walk in further, a timeless calm prevails with spacious, long and airy corridors. There is no congestion, no sense of claustrophobia no antiseptic smell to make the institute conducive to healing and recuperation.

Of the 222 beds, in the hospital, 94 are for free female and male including geriatric patients, 25 are subsidized beds for poor patients and 16 well equipped ICU beds for all categories of patients. In addition there are 61 ‘A’ category single room beds with attached bathroom, some of which are air conditioned with

TV and telephone overlooking the lovely garden, ideal for soothing the patients’ body and mind. There are 11 ‘B’ category beds, 5 paediatric beds and 12 beds for staff members. There are four well equipped and State-of-the-Art Operation theatres and one Maternity Operation Theatre to handle maternity cases. The total number of occupied bed days during 2010-11 was 57,622 with an occupancy rate of 71.1%. A total of 3147 in patients were treated during the year. 54.8% of the occupied bed days were utilized for free and subsidized patients; with women & children accounting for 52.75%.

SUPPORT SERVICES An elaborate huge kitchen with 3 dieticians, 12 cooks and 20 serving staff with their fast moving food trolleys bring nourishing and tasty multi-cuisine diets to the patients. The Hospital has a large number of well known honorary Physicians, General Surgeons, Neurologists, Orthopaedics and Cardio Vascular Surgeons, Gynaecologists, Nephrologists, Urologist and Ophthalmic Surgeons, etc. They are supported by 30 resident doctors including ICU Internists / Registrars, 130 Nursing Staff, 250 ward boys and women besides administrative and management staff led by competent CEO, Maj. Gen. (Retd) M. L. Malik with long years of experience to his credit.

In 2010-11 from a total expenditure of Rs.172.61 million the hospital spent Rs.94.59 million on charity cases. In addition the Hospital provided free and subsidized diagnostic services to the free and poor in-patients as well as OPD patients. The Hospital has tie-up with other hospitals for specialised investigation facilities not available in our hospital such as CT Scan, MRI, Dialysis, Cancer detection. This is provided free to the poor and free patients

NORTH AMERICAN CHARITABLE DONORS (i) Zarathushtis of USA and Canada have donated nearly USD 437,742 during the last decade. The hospital management is indeed grateful and deeply appreciative of the efforts undertaken by Dr. Yasmin and Jamshed Ghadiali, of New York.

(ii) Zarthosti Anjuman of North California, under the active guidance and participation of Dr. Homai Kasad and her family and friends, have collected and donated nearly USD 250,000 during the last decade.

ZTFE FRIENDS OF B D PETIT PARSEE GENERAL HOSPITALTwo generous donors from the UK have also contributed sums in excess of USD 150,000 over the last decade. It is indeed timely that the Zoroastrian Trust Funds of Europe has established a ZTFE Friends of B D Petit Parsee General Hospital campaign.

The Hospital Management finds it extremely difficult to maintain the present level of Charity Care for free and subsidized patients with a progressively increasing operational deficit over the last several years. The trustees are taking an objective hard look at the economics of running the hospital so as to initiate appropriate measures to enhance the revenue / earnings of the hospital by exploiting the un-utilised assets of the hospital for its sustenance.

Winston Churchill words are so apt when he said “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”

The trustees are delighted that ZTFE has taken up this campaign and wish to record their deep appreciation. We realise that this campaign has been inspired by the outstanding philanthropic example of the Zartoshty Brothers – Patrons of the ZTFE. We remember Mehraban and Faridoon very fondly. Memories were re-kindled in December 2012 when Viraf Saroshian, Mehraban’s grandson, visited the hospital with Dorab and Shenaz Mistry and it was then that ZTFE first initiated this very noble idea. May Ahura Mazda Bless all our donors and our benefactors.

ZTFE thanks FEZANA JOURNAL editor Dr Dolly Dastoor for permission to edit and re-produce this article which was originally written by Mr Homa Petit, President of the Hospital, for Fezana Journal Spring 2012 edition. Abridged by Dorab Mistry.
