Patients in need will be given free medical treatment at Zulekha hospitals in Dubai, Sharjah and India following an agreement with Dar Al Ber society.
Zulekha health group will offer discounts between 10 to 25 per cent from the total costs of treatment for patients referred to them by Dar Al Ber.
Discounts granted by the hospital are decided on a case-by-case basis for patients across the country suffering from diseases such as kidney failure. The society will cover the remaining amount after the discount is applied.
“We serve the charitable and humanitarian work in the country and the world and aim to strengthen the concept of social responsibility and work in line with the country’s policy and the directions of the leadership to provide help to the needy,” said Abdullah Al Falasi, executive director of Dar Al Ber.
According to the agreement, patients will receive full treatment at the group’s hospitals in Sharjah, Dubai and its Alexis Multispecialty Hospital in Nagpur, India.
“We shall provide medical services for destitute and low-income patients from across the country who are suffering from different diseases, mainly kidney failure,” said Dr Zulekha Dawood, owner of Zulekha Healthcare Group.
She said that they are keen on cooperating with all charities in the country to help vulnerable patients and ease their suffering during the Year of Giving.

Where to donate in the UAE
You can donate to several registered charities through a “donation catalogue”. The use of the donation is quite specific, such as buying a fan for a poor family in Niger for Dh130.
The General Authority of Islamic Affairs & Endowments
The site has an e-donation service accepting debit card, credit card or e-Dirham, an electronic payment tool developed by the Ministry of Finance and First Abu Dhabi Bank.
You can donate online or order Smiles n’ Stuff products handcrafted by Al Noor students. The centre publishes a wish list of extras needed, starting at Dh500.
Beit Al Khair Society has the motto “From – and to – the UAE,” with donations going towards the neediest in the country. Its website has a list of physical donation sites, but people can also contribute money by SMS, bank transfer and through the hotline 800-22554.
Dar Al Ber Society, which has charity projects in 39 countries, accept cash payments, money transfers or SMS donations. Its donation hotline is 800-79.
Dubai Cares provides several options for individuals and companies to donate, including online, through banks, at retail outlets, via phone and by purchasing Dubai Cares branded merchandise. It is currently running a campaign called Bookings 2030, which allows people to help change the future of six underprivileged children and young people.
Those who travel on Emirates have undoubtedly seen the little donation envelopes in the seat pockets. But the foundation also accepts donations online and in the form of Skywards Miles. Donated miles are used to sponsor travel for doctors, surgeons, engineers and other professionals volunteering on humanitarian missions around the world.
On the Emirates Red Crescent website you can choose between 35 different purposes for your donation, such as providing food for fasters, supporting debtors and contributing to a refugee women fund. It also has a list of bank accounts for each donation type.
Gulf for Good raises funds for partner charity projects through challenges, like climbing Kilimanjaro and cycling through Thailand. This year’s projects are in partnership with Street Child Nepal, Larchfield Kids, the Foundation for African Empowerment and SOS Children's Villages. Since 2001, the organisation has raised more than $3.5 million (Dh12.8m) in support of over 50 children’s charities.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum launched the Noor Dubai Foundation a decade ago with the aim of eliminating all forms of preventable blindness globally. You can donate Dh50 to support mobile eye camps by texting the word “Noor” to 4565 (Etisalat) or 4849 (du).
