Similar to many developing countries, Egypt’s health care system faces many challenges which come at a cost for the health and well-being of the Egyptian people. Egypt’s public healthcare system faces the challenges of being underfunded, with low-quality care and a lack of medical equipment.

The country’s investment in the public system is also low with only 1.5% of the total GDP for public health expenditures. The low standard of care in the healthcare system has greatly affected many Egyptians who cannot afford private care. 

Llah charity has donated wheelchairs to two different hospitals in Egypt to help transport patients and improve the overall care experience. The presence of wheelchairs in hospitals is essential as they provide patients with the freedom of mobility.

Patients needing medical attention shouldn’t be worried about how to move within the hospital they are seeking treatment in. Llah Charity has donated a total of 4 wheelchairs and aims to provide more medical equipment to hospitals in need.

Clean and accessible water is another essential human right, especially for vulnerable patients in public hospitals. Patients in public hospitals are not provided with free water or food at these hospitals.

Therefore, Llah Charity has donated two water dispensers in front of El Humayat Hospital and El Ramad Hospital in Egypt to help provide patients and the public with clean water. 1.1 billion people lack access to clean water, and 2.7 billion experience water scarcity at least one month a year, which is the reason why we are striving to reach more places in order to provide clean water to the public and people in need.

Lastly, Llah Charity wantd to expand medical care by helping provide accessible medication to low-income patients to reduce the financial burden they experience. Lack of access to affordable life-saving medication is a global dilemma, but certain countries are impacted more than others. The price of life-saving medicine in poor countries is typically more out of reach. The majority of the time the blame is rooted in market monopoly in an article written by BBC News mentions that “Drug markets in poorer countries just don’t work.”
