Committed to humanitarian services, Confiz donated PKR 1.25 million to Alkhidmat Foundation to provide immediate medical care in the flood-affected areas in Pakistan.
The donation will support ten medical camps in Quetta, Khuzdar, Wahwa, Charsdadda, and more. The medical camps will be operated by a team of health professionals arranged by the Alkhidmat Foundation, which is dedicated to providing medicines and health screening to 200 – 300 patients daily.
Muhammad Raza Saeed, Chief Executive Officer – Confiz, shared his sentiments on the flood-hit areas and said, “This cause is really close to Confiz as some of our colleagues belong to the flood-affected districts. Our partnership with Alkhidmat Foundation will make medical support available to the ones in need. Through this initiative, we hope to assist our community in these trying times.”
Considering Confiz’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts toward creating positive societal impact, it is noteworthy that this is not the first time Alkhidmat Foundation and Confiz have joined hands. Last year, Confiz was in the news for collaborating with Alkhidmat’s Diagnostic Center in Sindh to make blood testing accessible to the local community.
Regarding Confiz’s commitment to the community, Shahid Iqbal, Secretary General at Alkhidmat Foundation, stated, “Confiz has always been remarkably eager to contribute to social causes. We greatly appreciate their support in our flood relief drive and hope to continue this partnership for the betterment of society.”
Confiz’s focus on access to medical services in flood-affected areas comes from its long-term goal to strive toward healthcare equity, a vision reflected in Confiz’s CSR efforts in the healthcare space.
In April 2022, Confiz partnered with Pakistan’s Children’s Heart Foundation (PCHF) to construct a new Children’s Heart Hospital & Research Institute. In addition, Confiz has also facilitated cataract surgeries for 187 adult patients through The Layton Rahmatullah Trust (LRBT) and three heart surgeries with the help of the PCHF hospital.
Moreover, in June, Confiz participated in the Catfish, Corndogs, and Cornhole Tournament held in Rogers, United States, as one of the Gold sponsors, the proceeds of which were allocated for the benefit of the Mercy Health Foundation.
Corporate social responsibility has been at the core of Confiz’s company culture in the last fiscal year, as evident by its contributions to causes such as health equity, education, and water security.
Confiz continues to amplify its CSR targets with a renewed budget for FY 2023, where health and education will be the main focus areas to strengthen its commitment to give back to the community.
