PESHAWAR: As Imran Khan appealed to well-off people and philanthropists here on Wednesday to donate generously to the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital and Research Centre (SKMHRC), Rs 10 million were collected in 10 minutes well before the target.
"We have spent nine billion rupees for the delivery of free and quality medical treatment to cancer patients in the hospital. We collect two billion rupees from Pakistanis every year for the treatment of the poor patients," he said while addressing the annual donation party for Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital.
He said during the last one year Shaukat Khanum Healthcare System had launched three mega projects including an out-patient chemotherapy in Karachi diagnosing centre where poor patients were being treated without any cost, Shaukat Khanum Memorial cancer hospital in Peshawar and another inpatient unit in Lahore to double the capacity of the centre.
The construction of cancer hospital in Peshawar would cost Rs400 million, he added. Imran Khan, who is chairman of the Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf, said the total budget of the hospital is Rs3.6 billion and half of the money was raised with donations from the people.
