Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
On the 6th August we will be Climbing Scafell Pike in support of the Little Hearts Project with Muntada Aid.
The Little Hearts Projects funds volunteer medical professionals to travel to underdeveloped countries and perform life saving heart operations on children.
Specifically, funds will go towards building the Little Hearts Cardiac Centre in Bamako, Mali.
Mali has a population of 15.3 Million, of which over 150,000 are living with a congenital heart defect, that’s 1% of the population.
And every year over 700,000 children are born in Mali, and 7,000 of them will be born with a congenital heart defect. With not a single paediatric heart centre in the country, many of these children are faced with imminent death.
Objectives:
- To train the local health professionals to carry out paediatric cardiac procedures to treat congenital heart defects
- To act as a base for all future Little Hearts campaigns in the region.
Please help support our cause, little or large donations are both welcome!
*Please note: Zakat donations are accepted.
Thank you all for your support.
