Qatar Charity Launches New Campaign for Nephrology and Cardiology Sections at Children Specialized Hospital in Gaza

Qatar Charity has resumed its humanitarian campaign for Gaza under the title of “Save Gaza”. The Charity stated that the second stage aims at supporting the Children Specialized Hospital in Gaza via providing artificial kidneys, and speculums, and furnishing the neurology and cardiology sections with medical equipments.

It is expected that this program may cost Q.R 1968000, of which Q.R.970000 for kidneys and speculums sections (Q.R. 765000 and 157 000 respectively, 47000 for offices and sanitary service), Q.R.998000 for neurology and cardiology sections (Q.R.417000 and 528700 respectively).

According to Mr. ‘Abdullah Husain al-Ni‘mah, the General Manager of the Charity, “Lives of ten thousands of Palestinian children are in danger due to bad health conditions and siege. Only one apparatus is available for brain-graphy and 10% of Gazans are in need of speculums.”

Thus, he called for benefactors in Qatar to generously support this project since health care for children constitutes one of the main goals of charitable activities so as to save “The Children and the Old” from the aftermaths of the unjust siege.

It is worth mentioning that this project mainly aims at helping 85 children experiencing semi /renal failure, in addition to hundreds of children who are experiencing renal diseases. There are also some 37000 children in need of medical neurological services and 4500 heart patients.

By the way, it is important to state that Children Specialized Hospital in Gaza offers its specialized services to children of 12 years old and general services to those of 15 years old.

Mr. al-Ni’mah added “There are only 100 beds in this hospital, and the Charity has decided to increase this number to be 250 beds in its new developing plan.”
