About Campaign
ends 30 Jun 2023, 11:59 PMFor the past 11 years, a bubbly and active gentleman, Izzad had to juggle between dialysis sessions thrice a week and his school and work commitments. His life is a catalogue of misfortunes. Due to kidney failure and effects of medications and treatments, frequent hospitalisations and accidents caused him to lose his jobs. Yet amidst the difficulties, he remained positive and motivated to learn and pick up important skills, and grabbed every job opportunity as it came. Now, at 29 years old, he works as a private hire driver, albeit on limited days because of the toll dialysis takes on him.
Izzad looks forward to spending more time with his wife, Ms Nur Sharmin. Despite learning of his diagnosis, Sharmin remained by his side as a supportive friend through the years and they officially tied the knot in 2021. The couple found themselves enduring many challenges together. To support their family and dreams of having children eventually, they work hard to obtain dual income and savings.
Young patients like Izzad go through a unique set of challenges. Your support can shine a light to him and Sharmin's hope of building a family together, and you can help many other kidney patients too.
All the funds raised will go towards providing subsidised dialysis treatment and holistic care for our patients, including the provision of medical equipment and instruments.
About the Charity
The National Kidney Foundation (NKF) is currently supporting more than 5,300 kidney failure patients, about two-thirds of the national kidney failure patient population. Our patients are of the lower income group. Treating a patient costs over $2,000 a month, however, the treatment our patients receive is highly subsidised, with 76% paying $50 or less a month out-of-pocket.
NKF remains committed to journeying with our patients every step of the way in their treatment and rehabilitative care, advocating kidney health to prevent kidney failure and making a difference in the renal landscape to benefit the community.
