The charities we are working with will guarantee that all procurement of such equipment will reach the end point at hospitals, where it is so desperately required.

Zane and Kyzen Hosein are delighted to announce 'From Us to You''DetailsHi, we are Zane and Kyzen,Last year, we decided together with some friends, instead of spending money on giving each other Christmas presents, we decided to donate the money to the children and families who needed the help. This year we have decided between my brother and I, that we would like to extend this to other friends and family members. So instead of receiving a gift this Christmas we would like our friends and family to donate here and put a smile on someone else’s face who needs it more this year. Even if you don’t give us a Christmas present but want to donate, that would be amazing too!!!Thank you from both of us.About One Kind ActOne Kind Act Changes Communities and lives of others globally who suffer as a result of Poverty of Health, Nutrition and Education and may have Fallen Through The Net of the larger charities.
