HOFCD's Child Patient Support Program provides financial assistance, medicine support, and emotional guidance to families of thalassemia child patients in Mailsi and Vehari, ensuring no child is left without care.
Mailsi, District Vehari — HOFCD's Child Patient Support Program actively supports over 60 registered thalassemia patients in Mailsi and Vehari, providing financial assistance, medicine support, and regular health monitoring to ensure every child receives the care they need.
Living with thalassemia is an immense burden for families — not just emotionally, but financially. The cost of blood transfusions, chelation therapy, medications, and hospital visits can amount to PKR 10,000–30,000 per month per child. Most families in Mailsi and Vehari cannot afford this without support.

A Story of Hope
Five-year-old Ahmad from Mailsi was diagnosed with thalassemia major at the age of two. His family, daily wage laborers, could not afford monthly transfusions. HOFCD enrolled Ahmad in the patient support program — today, he receives regular transfusions at the HOFCD camp and attends school like any healthy child.
