Al Siraj Medical Center has announced that it will provide free medical services to many low-income families in Qatar, as part of a co-operation and partnership agreement recently signed between Qatar Charity (QC) and Al Siraj Medical Center.
The pact comes within the framework of the social responsibility towards the local community.
The agreement, signed by Ahmad Yousef Fakhroo, CEO's assistant for the Resources Development and Media sector at Qatar Charity, and Laila Hassan Mohamed Karimi, director of Al Siraj Medical Center, focuses on participating in community programmes organised by QC in view of its commitment to delivering assistance to low-income persons and families in Qatar.
The agreement came as part of the keenness of Al Siraj Medical Center to participate as a community partner in the programmes and activities held by Qatar Charity. Under the agreement, Al Siraj Medical Center will provide free medical services to target groups in all disciplines.
Ahmmed Omar AlSherawi, head of Qatar Charity’s Relations and Community Responsibility section, welcomed the co-operation and partnership with Al Siraj Medical Center within the framework of the social responsibility that brings together QC and various companies and organisations in support of humanitarian work and community service.
He noted that Qatar Charity always seeks to expand co-operation with various organisations from the public and private sectors, to fulfil its mission and maximise the number of beneficiaries. He added that QC is constantly keen to strengthen its co-operation with all commercial and service bodies, including those working in the health sector to deliver medical services to those with limited income in the local community.
Mohamed Tharwat, marketing manager of Al Siraj Medical Center, said as the center believes in community work and attaches attention to operationalising social responsibility and initiatives for the benefit of the local community, a partnership was established with Qatar Charity to provide free medical services to some of the target groups of those with low income. “We always look forward to jointly working, and seek to open up prospects for co-operation, which helps serve the community,” added Tharwat.
In a statement, Qatar Charity said it is, at all times, keen to establish community partnerships with various companies, bodies and foundations, given the positive impact such partnerships have on the life of those served by QC within and outside Qatar.
