\n The Emirates Red Crescent (ERC) has announced a financial contribution of $300,000 to the Ethiopia Cardiac Centre to help it provide medical care and perform surgeries for children.\n <\/p>\n

The announcement was made during a UAE delegation’s official visit to the Centre\u2019s headquarters in central Addis Ababa on Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It was held on on the sidelines of the Zayed Charity Run, scheduled to take place on Sunday in Addis Ababa.<\/p>\n

Ahmed Sari Al Mazrouei, Secretary-General of the Emirates Red Crescent,\u00a0stated that the financial support would strengthen the centre\u2019s significant efforts in treating children and contribute to achieving the mission of the charity run, inspired by the legacy and values of the Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.<\/p>\n

He noted that this step reflects the ERC\u2019s commitment to enhancing healthcare initiatives, particularly in the treatment of heart disease among children, helping to improve the quality of life for the most vulnerable groups and reinforcing the vision of the UAE\u2019s leadership to build a healthier and cohesive world.<\/p>\n

Hiruy Ali Endries, CEO of the Centre, expressed his deepest appreciation to the UAE for this vital support, adding that it represents an important step that will help advance the centre\u2019s efforts to treat patients and provide the necessary healthcare.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He further noted that since its opening, the facility has received around 24,000 patients and performs surgeries for both children and adults.<\/p>\n

It also receives patients from neighboring countries, handles between 30 and 40 patients daily, and has a waiting list of patients registered to consult doctors.<\/p>\n
