Make-A-Wish UAE and Mediclinic Middle East forge partnership to uplift young patients

A transformative collaboration between two leading humanitarian and healthcare organisations seeks to grant the wishes of children receiving medical care, enriching their treatment journey with moments of profound hope and joy.

Make-A-Wish UAE has established a meaningful cooperation agreement with Mediclinic Middle East, uniting their collective commitment to enhancing the lives of children navigating life-threatening health conditions. The partnership reflects a sophisticated understanding that psychological and emotional support forms an integral component of comprehensive care, working in concert with medical treatment to sustain hope and resilience throughout a child’s therapeutic journey.

The agreement was formalised during a ceremony attended by Hani Al Zubaidi, Chief Executive Officer of Make-A-Wish UAE, and Ahmed Ali, Executive Director of Mediclinic Middle East, alongside representatives from both esteemed organisations. This strategic alliance embodies a forward-thinking approach to integrated healthcare, recognising that granting a child’s wish can profoundly influence their emotional wellbeing and contribute meaningfully to their recovery process.

Through this collaboration, eligible children receiving care at Mediclinic Middle East will have their wishes transformed into memorable and significant experiences, carefully crafted to uplift their spirits and strengthen their emotional resilience. The partnership underscores the transformative potential of humanitarian endeavours working in concert with medical institutions to create lasting, tangible impact on the lives of young patients and their families.

Hani Al Zubaidi remarked upon the occasion, noting that the agreement represents a distinguished model of integration between healthcare provision and humanitarian mission. He emphasised that wishes extend far beyond fleeting moments, functioning instead as profound human experiences capable of leaving enduring impressions upon children, furnishing them with the positive energy requisite to navigate their treatment pathways.

Ahmed Ali highlighted Mediclinic Middle East’s conviction that paediatric care encompasses dimensions beyond medical treatment alone, extending necessarily to the emotional wellbeing of young patients and their families. Through this partnership, he expressed confidence that more children will experience transformative moments of joy, hope and strength during their most challenging periods.

Make-A-Wish UAE continues to cultivate strategic partnerships across the healthcare sector, national organisations and the private sphere, steadily expanding its capacity to reach more children and translate its humanitarian mission into meaningful experiences that resonate throughout families’ lives.
