Doha, Qatar: The General Directorate of Endowments at the Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs has announced the continuation of its institutional partnership with the Heart Hospital at Hamad Medical Corporation under the Nabd Waqf for heart patients, affiliated with the Healthcare Endowment Fund.

The initiative aims to strengthen the role of endowments in supporting specialised healthcare for heart patients unable to afford treatment costs.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, the ministry said the efforts fall within the Directorate's strategy to develop healthcare endowments and expand cooperation with Hamad Medical Corporation, reflecting its commitment to building a sustainable institutional endowment model that contributes to safeguarding lives and enhancing the quality of healthcare services in the country.

Commenting on the partnership, Eng. Hassan bin Abdullah Al Marzouqi, Director-General of the General Directorate of Endowments, said the collaboration, launched in 2021, represents "a practical model of national integration in serving patients." He noted that since its establishment, the Nabd Waqf has contributed to the treatment of heart patients by providing financial support for critical surgeries, the implantation of advanced medical devices, and covering treatment and hospitalization costs for eligible cases.

He added that the initiative underscores the impact of healthcare endowments as a sustainable instrument for supporting the national medical system, expressing appreciation to donors, whose contributions constitute an ongoing charitable reward.
