FOCP has been channelling the funds to cover some of the most expensive aspects of cancer treatment, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, surgical procedures, and also covered urgent expenses patients incur during early stages of treatment and care.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Sawsan Al Madhi, Director General of FOCP, said: \u201cThe compassionate UAE community are the champions of our \u2018I Deserve a Life\u2019 campaign. Their generosity reflects the humanitarian values that the Emirati society is based on, and has offered immense hope to cancer patients who are not just battling a serious disease, but have to cope with the financial burden of treatment as well. The support for our Ramadan Zakat initiative has only grown stronger each year, I am certain we will be overwhelmed with the nation\u2019s passion to unite for a common cause once again this year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not just treatment costs that this campaign covers for patients in need. Through our strong emotional and moral support, we fill them with hope and give them the positivity they need to push ahead on the path of recovery. I urge each and every individual in the country who can afford to join this cause, to do so. Solidarity and charity are truly the essence of Ramadan,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Donations can be made online, through bank transfers, cheques and cash coupons and via SMS.<\/p>\n<p>Donation coupons of AED 10, 50 and 100 are available for purchase at Zakat kiosks located in Sharjah Cooperative Society\u2019s branches in Al Sewihat, Halwan and Al Qarayen, 10:00 am \u2013 1:00 am throughout Ramadan.<\/p>\n<p>SMS donations can be made by sending the word \u2018Zakat\u2019 to 4425 (Etisalat or Du) to donate AED 10; to 2307 (Etisalat or Du) to donate AED 100, or to 2308 (Etisalat or Du) to donate AED 500.<\/p>\n<p>Donors also have the option of making direct deposits into FOCP\u2019s \u2018Zakatkm Elajohm\u2019 local account no: 0011-364854-002 at the main branch of Sharjah Islamic Bank (International Bank Account Number \u2018IBAN\u2019: AE440410000011364854002).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seventh edition of Friends Of Cancer Patients\u2019 annual fundraiser for UAE\u2019s cancer patients The Sharjah-based&#8230;..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":"","_wp_rev_ctl_limit":""},"categories":[55],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21285","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press-release-ar"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
