Membership Drive
The membership campaign was started by Imran Khan to increase political participation and make the people of Pakistan become more acquainted with the PTI agenda. The membership drive is still going on and has been very successful, especially in Pakistan's largest cities. The membership campaign arranged by the party is a unique one, with a number of floats roaming various cities with huge banners and Imran Khan's picture on top of them. Also a documentary named Nijat-e-Dahinda (The Saviour) is shown on screen, in which the vision of the chairman and the party manifesto is explained. At the end of the documentary, Imran Khan appears and gives a message to the people of Pakistan to join the party and strengthen its hands.
The party is predominantly funded by wealthy benefactors who live in Europe and North America.

Famous quotes containing the words membership and/or drive:
“The two real political parties in America are the Winners and the Losers. The people don’t acknowledge this. They claim membership in two imaginary parties, the Republicans and the Democrats, instead.”
—Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. (b. 1922)
“The open frontier, the hardships of homesteading from scratch, the wealth of natural resources, the whole vast challenge of a continent waiting to be exploited, combined to produce a prevailing materialism and an American drive bent as much, if not more, on money, property, and power than was true of the Old World from which we had fled.”
—Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)
