Canceling Cancer in Afghanistan with Wellness Worldwide for Sustainable Communities

Canceling Cancer in Afghanistan with Wellness Worldwide for Sustainable Communities

🌏Dr. Meena Said discusses the work of her nonprofit, Wellness Worldwide, this week. It provides international tertiary care coordination for terminally ill Afghan children, forgotten by the world along with their nation. "Coordinate" because these kids cannot be treated IN Afghanistan as there is no pediatric cancer center there. Find out why on this episode.

⚕️Not only does @wellnessworldwide_ serve dying children, but its field clinic serves a population of 35,000 internally displaced Afghans, mostly women and children, with primary care and surgical follow up, labs and medication. It is also a referral source for the terminally ill children they help coordinate care for. 

❤️If you have zakat or sadaqa allocated to Gaza, as you should, please also consider the nonprofits, orgs, and people coming on the podcast this month on our series who work quietly in service of Allah's most ignored creation and causes. This Ramadan may be one of our tightest yet, but if it doesn't hurt to give, we haven't given enough. It's the least we can do as we sit in the comforts of the West that we still have.

🎧Tune in at 6pm to learn more and share this episode with someone who can help Meena meet her short and longterm goals for her kids, and to donate to Wellness Worldwide for Sustainable Communities.
