Egypt’s oldest and biggest specialized pediatrics hospital that provides treatment for more than 1 million poor children each year. It is the only in the Middle East that offers free help to children at all ages and in all specialties.
Since 2004, the foundation has been holding the vision of turning Abou El Reesh as a center of excellence through upgrading the hospital’s infrastructure, providing training for nurses, inaugurating new specialized medical units, upgrading facilities. Recently, the foundation in cooperation with Cairo University has mandated the Joint Commission an international accreditation institute to provide an assessment and a roadmap to prepare the hospital for accreditation; a serious endeavor that requires pooling patriotic resources. In addition, the foundation has purchased a land to help establish a new annex hospital to be funded by JICA (Japanese Aid).

- Renovating and upgrading the inpatient area, dorms of junior doctors as well as offices of senior doctors.
- Establishing recreation rooms for children.
- Upgrading the Neurosurgery Unit and Cardiac Department.
