Support Palestinian Infants - Donate Now for Critical Medical Aid 2024

In a heart-warming initiative, Muslim Charity has provided a state-of-the-art hearing testing device for Palestinian infants in Ramallah, located in the West Bank region of Palestine. This advanced device is set to significantly benefit poor Palestinian new born infants, ensuring early detection and intervention for hearing impairments.

Empowering Early Detection and Intervention

The Al Nahda Women Charitable Society, accredited by the Palestinian Ministry of Health, is one of the few specialised centres in the West Bank offering comprehensive audiology and speech pathology services. The newly donated hearing testing device is designed specifically for infants, addressing the unique challenges of testing new-borns who constantly move. This ensures accurate readings and early detection of hearing issues, which is crucial for timely intervention and treatment.

Significant Impact on the Community

According to the Palestinian Bureau of Statistics, there are 92,710 individuals with disabilities in Palestine, with 44,570 residing in the West Bank. Specifically, 19,811 individuals suffer from hearing impairments. The donation of this device is expected to directly benefit around 150 infants each month, totalling up to a potential 1,800 infants annually.

Alleviating Economic Burdens

The indirect beneficiaries of this initiative are expected to extend beyond the infants themselves to approximately 9,000 family members. Early detection and treatment of hearing impairments reduce the long-term financial burden on families, allowing them to allocate resources to other essential needs. This contribution from Muslim Charity aligns with their mission to support marginalised communities and enhance their quality of life.

A Message of Gratitude

Maryam Hejaz, an audiologist at the centre, expressed her gratitude, stating, "This device is used to measure the audio to brain responses, and it is considered one of the best devices in the country. The availability of this device allows us to conduct early evaluation tests for hearing-impaired children. On behalf of our audiology staff, we would like to thank the Muslim Charity for their support."
