Zakat Appeal - Your Support Can Save Lives

Since its inception in 1977, Fatima Memorial Hospital (FMH) has been a beacon of hope for millions, providing free or highly subsidized medical treatment to those in need. This remarkable journey of compassion and commitment has been made possible through the generous support of ZAKAT funds.

A Legacy of Compassion: FMH's roots trace back to a tragic personal loss that transformed into a legacy of resilience and determination. In 1917, Maulvi Feroz-ud-din, a distinguished scholar, experienced the devastating loss of his wife, Kaneez Fatima, due to inadequate medical facilities during childbirth. In her memory, he founded the Ferozsons Trust in 1944, with a vision to provide healthcare, education, and social development for the underprivileged. In 1971, Dr. Abdul Waheed and Begum Saida Waheed, the son and daughter-in-law of Maulvi Feroz-ud-din, donated their assets to establish FMH, a hospital dedicated to women and children, thus bringing the Trust's vision to life.

A Journey of Growth and Compassion: Over the years, FMH has grown from a 200-bed community hospital to a 453-bed multi-specialty tertiary care teaching hospital. It has become a leading institution dedicated to providing high-quality healthcare for women and children. The mission of providing quality healthcare to all, regardless of their ability to pay, is only possible with your support.

Impacting Lives: FMH stands out as one of the few hospitals in Lahore with a dedicated neonatology unit to provide optimal care for children. With four gynecology and obstetrics units, it caters to the diverse needs of the female population, offering services like vaginal delivery, cesarean section, infertility treatment, and addressing various gynecological issues.

Making a Difference with ZAKAT Funds: To date, FMH has treated over 10.04 million deserving patients either free of cost or at highly subsidized rates through ZAKAT funds. This has led to an astonishingly low maternal mortality rate of 0.07% and a neonatal mortality rate of 2.07%. FMH's commitment to providing quality medical services aligns with its mission to make healthcare accessible and affordable for all.

Challenges and Solutions: Pakistan faces a significant healthcare challenge, with a large portion of the population lacking access to primary healthcare services and health insurance. The underprivileged are the most affected, and health-related expenses often drive families into poverty. FMH's solution involves expanding healthcare services and improving overall health. This includes addressing general medical needs, establishing a Nephrology Department, Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, and a Pediatrics Department.

The Long-Term Impact: Every donation to Fatima Memorial Hospital contributes to providing quality healthcare to deserving patients in Pakistan. Your support can save lives and give people a chance to live free from misery, pain, and poverty. By choosing to support our cause, you are not only making a difference this year but also creating a lasting impact that will change lives for generations.

Thank you for your continued support and dedication to our mission of healing lives. Together, we can bring health, hope, and happiness to those in need.
