Hand-in-Hand Dialysis Aid Program

With the disbursement of funds that we received from from the Little by Little 2021 campaign, we are able to extend our dialysis aid subsidy support to 8 patients during the period from April 2021 to June 2021. This dialysis treatment subsidy is especially crucial for the patients as it comes at a time when our country is hit by both the Covid-19 pandemic as well as the ecomony uncertainties caused by the current lockdown measures that are put in placed. The aid will ensure that the supported patients get to continue with their dialysis treatment without disruption. Special thanks goes out to all donors whom supported us in our campaign, as well as to the team at GlobalGiving for spearheading the meaningful initiative! The following are some photos of the beneficiaries, whom expressed their heartfelt thanks for the support provided. Stay tuned for our Quarter 2 2021 report that will be released soon.

This report highlights the Hand-in-Hand Dialysis Aid Program for the first quarter of 2021, which covers the period from 1st January 2021 until 31st March 2021. In the first quarter of 2021, 28 kidney failure patients  from the low-income earners or unemployed group were assisted via our Dialysis Aid Program, compared to 27 supported patients within the same period in 2020. Each patient receives dialysis fee subsidy ranging from RM130 to RM2,500 per month for a period of three months or more to ease their burden. 5 of the beneficiaries are new cases.
