Fundraising Campaign to Support Dialysis Patients
In northern Syria, where the suffering of a war that has lasted for more than 12 years intersects with the pain of illness, there are human stories that ignite hearts. Dialysis patients in Jarabulus face daily challenges to sustain their lives. Each dialysis session is a new chance at life, but this opportunity is at risk of being lost due to the shortage of medical supplies.
The Dialysis Center in Jarabulus is the only beacon of hope in the region. However, this center faces the risk of closure due to the depletion of essential tools and equipment needed for dialysis sessions. Every day, more than 40 patients rely on this center to keep their lives going. Children, women, and the elderly—all are waiting for your helping hand.
Amid the ongoing crisis in Syria, the Dialysis Center in Jarabulus faces the risk of closure. This means that hundreds of patients will be deprived of life-saving treatment. Imagine a young girl suffering from illness, or a woman working hard to support her family, both relying on this center for their survival. .

Why we invite you to contribute:
Dialysis patients face ongoing challenges in their quest to stay healthy. Many live normal lives despite the impact of this chronic disease. through dialysis centers.
Due to various support issues faced by health projects in northwestern Syria. most dialysis centers are at risk of ceasing services due to the lack of dialysis equipment needed to provide routine and emergency dialysis sessions to more than 1,170 patients per year.
The Dialysis Program is a specialized healthcare initiative that aims to provide comprehensive care for individuals with kidney failure or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who require dialysis therapy to replace lost kidney function.
Most of these centers have a stockpile of dialysis equipment. which will run out by mid-October 2024. with no alternative plans from the World Health Organization (WHO) or relevant humanitarian agencies to supply these centers with dialysis equipment. Dialysis centers in Syria have reached a breaking point. They have been struggling since the beginning of the conflict to continue providing services to the most vulnerable groups with acute and chronic kidney disease, including “patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).”
In the Jarablus area where our campaign will take place. PAC has established the only center in the region that serves end-stage renal disease patients and provides emergency and scheduled sessions for all ages and genders from Al-Bab, Al-Rai and Jarablus areas since 2016.
Between January 1, 2024 and June 30, 2024. Jarablus Dialysis Center provided a total of 1505 dialysis sessions.
The Jarablus Center of Doctors Across Continents. remains a vital component supporting more than 40 patients who rely on life-sustaining dialysis sessions every month. including a child and 10 women.
The center not only provides dialysis services. but also provides transportation services for patients. to facilitate their medical journey and ensure the continuity of the treatment they need.
On average. The center provides life-saving services for both acute and chronic kidney disease by performing an average of 250 sessions per month. of which 241 are part of the routine dialysis program for chronic kidney failure. and 9 emergency sessions per month for urgent and acute kidney failure.
The center is equipped with 8 functional dialysis machines at the Jarablus Dialysis Center. 2 of them are dedicated to Hepatitis B (HBV) and Hepatitis C (HCV) patients.
What services will the center provide?
Key components of a dialysis program include the following:
What are the expenses involved in dialysis?
As part of this campaign. PAC will support the center with the following:
A. One doctor: To examine and admit patients to the dialysis unit and follow up with them frequently. -Prescribe appropriate treatment for patients.

Collect blood samples for patients periodically. To maintain the dialysis machines and other equipment and keep them clean, sterilized, and in working order. To maintain patient records.

D. Four laborers/cleaners: Maintain a clean environment in the workplace.
A. Supplies, goods and materials: Medical supplies are needed to conduct dialysis sessions and maintain equipment. Fuel will be used for heating and electricity support. Small meals will be provided to patients during dialysis sessions. Cleaning materials and other costs are needed to properly operate the center.
b. One transportation vehicle: This vehicle will be used to transport patients from their location to the dialysis center and vice versa on a daily basis.
c. Periodic maintenance of the center to maintain the safety of patients and workers.
