Alkhidmat Ambulance Now in Action for Palestinian Refugees in Beirut

Since the escalation of the humanitarian crisis in Palestine, thousands of Palestinian refugees in Beirut have been struggling to access essential healthcare services. In response, Alkhidmat Foundation Pakistan has launched an emergency ambulance service to provide lifesaving medical support to these displaced individuals. The ambulance, fully equipped with emergency medical facilities, has started its operations, ensuring that those in critical need receive swift and safe transportation to medical centers.

Providing Urgent Medical Aid to the Most Vulnerable

The Palestinian refugee camps in Beirut are overcrowded and lack proper healthcare infrastructure. Many individuals, especially children, elderly patients, and those with chronic illnesses, find it difficult to reach hospitals in time. This ambulance service bridges the gap by offering free transportation and immediate medical attention. The presence of trained paramedics ensures that critical patients receive first aid and stabilization before reaching a healthcare facility.

Impact So Far

Since its deployment, the Alkhidmat Ambulance has responded to multiple emergencies, including cases of severe illness, injuries, and maternal health complications. The service has already benefited hundreds of families, providing them with timely medical care that was previously out of reach.

One of the first beneficiaries was a critically ill elderly woman who required urgent hospitalization but had no means of transport. Alkhidmat’s ambulance immediately responded, ensuring she reached the medical facility in time. Her family expressed deep gratitude, stating that without this service, she might not have survived.

Looking Ahead

The need for emergency healthcare assistance continues to grow among Palestinian refugees in Lebanon. With your continued support, Alkhidmat Foundation aims to expand these services, ensuring that more ambulances, medical supplies, and trained paramedics are available to assist those in need.

We deeply appreciate the generosity of our donors from GlobalGiving and the dedication of our volunteers who make such initiatives possible. Your contributions help save lives, ensuring that vulnerable communities receive the urgent care they deserve. Stay connected for more updates on our ongoing relief efforts. Together, we can continue to stand with Palestinian refugees in their time of need.

Hot Meals for Sahur & Iftar in Gaza

Since October 7, 2023, Alkhidmat Foundation has been actively engaged in providing relief to the people of Gaza, where ongoing conflict and displacement have left thousands struggling to secure food. As part of our humanitarian response, we launched the Hot Meals for Sahur & Iftar initiative to ensure that families observing Ramadan and those in dire need have access to nutritious meals during Sahur (pre-dawn meal) and Iftar (breaking fast at sunset).

So far, 213,678 hot meals have been distributed across Gaza, reaching displaced families, widows, orphans, and individuals facing extreme hardships. Our dedicated teams have been working tirelessly to cook and distribute fresh, warm meals daily, despite the challenges posed by supply chain disruptions and security concerns. Each meal is carefully prepared to meet nutritional needs, providing essential sustenance for those who are fasting or simply struggling to find food amid the crisis.

This initiative has been made possible through the generous support of our donors, particularly those from the GlobalGiving community, who have stood with us in solidarity to bring relief to the people of Gaza. With their contributions, we have been able to sustain our meal distribution program, ensuring that no one goes to bed hungry.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to GlobalGiving donors and all those who have supported this cause. Your generosity is making a real difference in the lives of countless individuals, giving them strength and nourishment in their time of need. We urge you to continue supporting this initiative so that together, we can bring hope and sustenance to Gaza’s most vulnerable communities.
