Story

Asalamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,

Lets have a heart to heart. 

It is with pleasure that the Queen Mary Islamic Society is able to announce this year's Ramadhan campaign - Little Hearts.

Little Hearts is a unique project based in several countries in Africa & Asia, aimed at providing free life saving cardiac surgery and interventional cardiac catheterisation for children with Congenital Heart Defects from underprivileged families irrespective of gender, race or religion.

Each year over 1,000,000 babies are born worldwide with a congenital heart defect. 100,000 of them will not live to see their first birthday and thousands more die before they reach adulthood. 

Muntada Aid believes ignoring this deadly killer is tantamount to a death sentence on the many babies afflicted with this disease. Which is why the Little Hearts project exists. The Little Hearts project is the largest heart treatment project of its kind in the world, sending a team of more than 30 heart professionals each time carrying out on average 60 operations.
1. In addition to sending a global team of medical volunteers to perform life-saving heart operations,
2. Muntada Aid also trains local health professionals to carry out future operations ensuring sustainability and that lives can be saved long after we have gone,
3. and we build and equip cardiac centres with vital equipment and medication needed.

The impact of this project is far reaching; aiming to leave a lasting footprint not only on the children that are treated through it, but also on the local medical staff who receive beneficial training from our experienced team, guaranteeing a future of more capable health personnel.

Donate today. Save a little one's life.
