The Alma Hospital Trust was created by Mr. Younis, a postman whose mother has passed away because of the lack of medical care in the region she lived in. Mr. Younis has pledged to not let anyone go through the same suffering she went through and campaigned for 10 years in order to raise money to build a hospital (which has been named after his late mother, Alma Bi), despite his inexperience in fund-raising or medical care. The region I am talking about is called District Hafizabad, and it is one of the poorest regions in Pakistan. Because of this, the medical care and treatments are offered free of charge to over 17,000 people each year. By the sheer number of people you can see that there is huge need for extra funding that will aid all this people lead a healthier life.
Domino's Pizza have helped organise the event and have raised over £1000, with the owners donating an extra £5000 to help this beautiful cause. So, if you want to make a difference in someone's life, DONATE! Stay home and study one night instead of going out and help save a life with what you would have paid for a few pints. It is ridiculous how much every penny counts for this people, so don't take it lightly. With just a few weeks until Christmas, find it in your heart to make life better for other people.
Love,
Maddie.
