Our goal is to help the vulnerable residents of Korangi, who do not have enough money or resources to get good medical care. In addition to providing medical assistance, our healthcare professionals will educate residents on the importance of living a healthy and hygienic lifestyle and provide tips for disease prevention.
We have a nationwide panel of hospitals, and we will also refer patients if they need surgery or specialized treatment at one of those hospitals. With an unwavering commitment to providing high-quality healthcare services to the people of Korangi, Karachi, we humbly request your generous assistance in achieving this vital objective.
