A new cancer hospital is being built in Karachi, Pakistan and we are crowd-fundraising for the founder wall and the mammogram room. It's only by pooling our resources and working together that we can help make this cancer hospitality a reality and the patients be able to get the treatment.
From Jan 2017 till Dec 2019 a total of 33,309 malignant cases were recorded in Karachi Cancer Registry database comprising 17,490 (52.5%) females and 15,819 (47.5%) males. (Nov 28, 2020)
