<div>We started the Mikael Rayaan Foundation (MRF) on May 15, 2023, in the loving memory of two beautiful angels who brought light and joy to everyone who knew them. Our mission is to honor their legacy by working for the betterment of humanity through healthcare and related causes, including food and water, community support, disaster relief, and humanitarian assistance both in the US and globally.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are committed to making a positive impact on the world by providing resources and support to those in need. Through our work in medicine, we aim to improve the health and well-being of underprivileged individuals and communities around the world. In addition to our work in medicine, we are dedicated to serving those in need through social services. We believe that every person has the right to access necessities such as food, clean water, and shelter. We will work tirelessly to provide aid to those affected by natural disasters, poverty, and other humanitarian crises.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Through our efforts, we hope to create a brighter future for all. We believe that by embodying the spirit of Mikael and Rayaan, with their love, kindness, and generosity, we can make a difference in the lives of countless individuals and communities. We will honor their memory by continuing to spread their light and love throughout the world. Our foundation is dedicated to the pursuit of a better world, one that is more just, compassionate, and equitable. We invite you to join us in this journey and to honor the memory of Mikael and Rayaan by working for the betterment of humanity.

BMT is inaccessible to middle to low-income families due to financial constraints and thousands of children die from blood diseases. We will work closely with Dr. Nasir Bukhari at the BMT program on several initiatives including capacity building and training of the staff to provide cutting-edge therapies such as an exchange scholar/fellowship program at the University of Kansas BMT program in Kansas City USA, medical literature subscriptions for easy access to new research advancements, combined clinical conferences to discuss challenging patients, collaboration in clinical research trials, and financial assistance for needy families to cover the cost of therapy.
