Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am raising $11,000 to help construct the only Cancer Hospital in Pakistan that will be built in Karachi. The donations will directly go to the hospital fund where cancer patients will be receiving free cancer care. Plans are underway to complete the construction of the Hospital over a three-year time-frame, at an estimated cost of Rs. 4.5 billion. SKMCH&RC in Karachi, a multi-level facility, is planned to open its doors to patients on December 29, 2019 as a fully-functional cancer hospital with all the essential clinical and support departments one would expect of a facility of this nature. These will include Medical Oncology, Pediatric Oncology, Clinical and Radiation Oncology, Surgical Oncology, Anesthesia  Radiology, Internal Medicine, Nuclear Medicine, and Pathology. The Hospital will be equipped with the latest cancer care technology, including state of the art diagnostic facilities, radiation treatment planning and delivery systems, and will have forty outpatient clinics, a sixty-bed outpatient chemotherapy facility, one hundred inpatient rooms, twelve operation theatres, and thirty intensive care (ICU) beds.

We need your help to build Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital where people can get free and affordable treatment because the more hospitals the better access to the facilities, treatments, and cure.

Your cooperation in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Thank You!

Shaukat Khanum Memorial Trust (SKMT) aims to provide top quality diagnostic and treatment facilities to cancer patients, irrespective of their ability to pay. The inauguration of the Shaukat Khanum Diagnostic Centre and Clinic in Karachi, in 2010, was the first step towards bringing cancer care facilities closer to the people of Karachi. In continuation of this vision, the Trust has now embarked on its latest project, to establish Pakistan’s third Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre (SKMCH&RC), in Karachi. Here, we hope to continue our tradition of providing the best possible cancer care to all our patients, irrespective of their ability to pay. The construction of a comprehensive cancer centre in Karachi will not only provide state-of-the-art cancer care facilities to the people of Sindh and adjoining areas, but it will also help to enhance healthcare standards and to develop training and employment opportunities in the wider region as a whole.
