Fundraising for new Cancer Hospital in Pakistan

Project Report | Jul 23, 2023
Together we can make a difference

By Rukhsana | Project Volunteer

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)

The World Health Organization has reported a steady increase in the incidence of cancer in Pakistan. According to the present study, breast cancer (24.1%), oral cavity (9.6%), colorectum (4.9%), esophagus (4.2%), and liver cancer (3.9%) were the five most prevalent cancers. (Apr 25, 2023)

Thank you for all the help you have given. Please spread the word and help us make this happen.
