Happy New Year all,

As you may know, I run a fundraiser every year in memory of my mum, Hamideh, who passed away on 7 January 2011 due to Leukemia. I am fundraising for the medical treatment of 20 financially vulnerable patients this year, mostly children.

With your help over the past years, we were able to fund the treatment of over 150 patients for chemotherapy, dialysis, surgery, medication, and ongoing hospital visits. To give you some perspective about treatment costs in underprivileged villages:

£7 - is the cost of hospital consultation appointment

£35 - is the cost of one session of chemotherapy

£70 - is the cost of 3 months of medication and hospital tests/visits

£200 - is the average cost of general surgery

Your ongoing support means the gift of life to these patients and their families.

If you need any more information about the charity and its recent activities, please let me know. *Further details of the patients can be shared upon request (in compliance with GDPR).

I also wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for your ongoing support during the past years.

The positive energy and prayer of the patients that you help will return to you in some form.

Ida and Shiva
