Gala Dinner 2009
19.04.2009
Location:Ozer
Total raised: £4000
Money sent to the Paediatric Oncology department at the Baghdad Medical Complex on 11.07.2009
In support of the Paediatric Oncology Clinic at Baghdad’s teaching hospital, Iraq Relief brings to you its second Gala Dinner fundraiser.
This centre sees an increasing number of severely ill children a year, yet continues to function whilst both under funded and understaffed, lacking basic equipment medication and resources.
Many painful procedures are undertaken on the children without adequate pain relief. Effective anti-cancer drugs are in short supply with infection control procedures almost non-existent. Add to this the fact that many of the children suffer from nutritional problems on top of their cancers and you may begin to get an idea of the conditions in which these doctors work.
Nevertheless, the team of doctors and healthcare professionals at the clinic are exceptionally dedicated to this cause, and with your support they will be able to undertake their jobs more effectively, continuing to drastically change the lives of the patients they see!
