Story

Give Hope. Give Strength. Give a Chance to Heal.

Six years ago, my life changed when I became a breast cancer survivor.

Cancer taught me many things, but one lesson stayed deeply in my heart: not everyone who needs medical care has the financial ability to afford it.

Behind every patient is a family. Behind every diagnosis is fear, hope, and a prayer that tomorrow will be better.

That is why, for the third year, I am continuing my fundraising campaign through YallaGive for Al Jalila Foundation.

I am not doing this because I have everything. I am doing it because I know how precious hope can be when someone is going through one of the most difficult moments of their life.

Your donation, no matter how small, can become part of someone's journey toward receiving the medical support they desperately need.

AED 10, AED 50, AED 100—or any amount you can give—can make a difference.

If you cannot donate, you can still help by sharing this campaign with your family, friends, colleagues, and social media community. Sometimes, one share can reach the person who is able to make a life-changing contribution.

This October, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I invite you to stand with me—not only in awareness, but in action.

Let's turn compassion into support.

Let's turn generosity into hope.

Let's remind someone facing illness that they are not alone.

Together, we can give hope where it is needed most.

Thank you for standing with me and for helping me continue this journey of giving.

With love, hope, and gratitude,

Thelma Susano
