We’re making healthcare accessible to millions of vulnerable and underserved children, men and women in Pakistan, and doing it absolutely free-of-cost. But we need YOUR help. 

This campaign is ZAKAT ELIGIBLE. By donating to this campaign you will be fulfilling your Zakat obligations InshAllah. 

We believe that every child and mother deserves access to quality healthcare, regardless of their socio-economic background.

In Pakistan, maternal and child mortality rates are still alarmingly high. Lack of access to proper medical facilities and resources contributes significantly to this issue. Our goal is to address this gap and provide free medical treatment to the most vulnerable communities.

We treat over 450,000 patients monthly for FREE.

70% of our patients are Zakat Eligible.

Could you imagine the helplessness these families experience? Affordable healthcare is a basic human right.

Primary Care
100 million Pakistanis have never visited the doctor

Imagine being sick and not being able to visit the doctor.

Imagine not being able to have regular checkups. Imagine living a life with an illness - but never knowing which one, or how to cure it.

This is the sad reality for millions of Pakistanis - and why supporting our Primary Care Program (PCP) is so important.

We can provide it for FREE, but we need YOUR help. 

Childhood Cancer

Around 8,000 children in Pakistan under the age of 18 are diagnosed with cancer every year. Due to expensive treatment, most families cannot afford it. We've treated over 12,000 children FOR FREE.

Imagine being a parent and feeling helpless because you can’t afford treatment for your sick child. Every child deserves a chance to live life to the fullest, to grow up, and experience the joys of childhood.

Fortunately, more than 80% of times, childhood cancer is permanently curable if proper treatment is given at an early stage.

Just like treatment to other diseases, Indus Hospital has been leading the way in bringing hope for children suffering with cancer.

One chemotherapy session costs only $25.

Pakistan has one of the highest maternal mortality ratios in South Asia.

For many, experiencing pregnancy, childbirth and motherhood is a blessing. Unfortunately, there are thousands of women in Pakistan who struggle through this important chapter of their lives.

• No prenatal care
• ​Lack of adequate options for safe delivery
• ​High risk of maternal mortality
• ​Other risks associated with births
• ​Lack of postpartum care.

A wonderful experience only to be taken away because of a lack of access to healthcare. We can provide it for FREE and save lives, but we need YOUR help. 

Besides the above programs and initiatives, Indus Hospital also operates: 
Mobile Boat clinic, container-based community health centers, Mobile clinics Infectious disease awareness and treatment programs, Education, training and research facilities.

ALL FOR FREE.

Open your heart, be generous with your donations and zakat.
