AMAR Foundation appeals to help fight Covid-19 in Iraq

COVID-19 is spreading rapidly across the world. Governments of even the wealthiest countries are struggling to cope with the scale of the Pandemic. For Iraq this is nothing short of a disaster. Iraq's health care system is in almost permanent crisis, constantly on the brink of collapse. 

Iraq is a country devastated by decades of war, conflict, corruption and poverty, and now its beleaguered staff and broken infrastructure is being asked to deal with one of the most virulent viruses the world has ever known. 
The hundreds of thousands of displaced Yazidi's living in the sprawling camps in the north are particularly at risk. The AMAR Foundation's field teams are doing all they can to limit the spread of Covid-19 by dispensing much needed advice and support to those most in need. 

For the last 27 years, AMAR has been at the forefront of efforts to support and enhance the Iraqi health care system. AMAR have built, refurbished and run more than 75 health care centres and AMAR medical teams have carried out 11 million consultations.

But we need your support. Without our amazing supporters the AMAR Foundation could not have achieved so much for more than a quarter of a century. Today, with COVID-19 being the very latest threat to the lives of the Iraqi people, we need your help more than ever.
