In fact, the above-mentioned bazaar takes place after a visit conducted by the Pharmacy students along with Iradah Shababiah’s members to Althawrah Public Hospital- Sana’a. After collecting statistic data about the renal failure patients and their needs, the volunteers started a donation campaign collecting aids from tradesmen, societies, and pharmaceutical companies. According to Osamah Haji, a representative of Iradah Shababiah Initiative, the campaign will extend to several days. “After this field survey,” Haji maintained, “we will do our best in conjunction with Al-Nasser students to find funding sources that would help us purchase the medicines and other necessities to be regularly handed over to patients.”
