Jafriya Disaster Management Cell Welfare Organization (JDC), commonly known as JDC Foundation Pakistan, is a welfare and non-governmental organization (NGO) mainly operating in Pakistan.
It was established in 2009 by Sibt-e-Jaffaar Zaidi and some like-minded youths in Karachi. Syed Zafar Abbas Jafri was also one of its founding members.
It operates an ambulance set-up all over Pakistan and helps in emergencies and efforts after disasters. In a year, besides its volunteers, departmental heads and president, at least two JDC-Ambulance drivers have lost their lives in targeted killing. In 2014 JDC provided medical aid by organizing a medical camp in collaboration with the Pakistan Red Crescent Society
