A grant contract was signed by
Shimazaki Kaoru,
ambassador of Japan to Jordan and Husein Fayez Husein Abu Dubai, President of
Al Farouq Society for Orphans Care, at a ceremony held at the embassy of Japan
in Amman on Wednesday.
This grant assistance aims to enhance the quality of
medical services provided at the Al Farouq Society’s clinic in Irbid
Palestinian refugee camp, through the provision of a new X-ray machine,
ultrasound equipment and blood analyzer. The society was established in 1991 as
an NGO in Jordan, and since then, it has provided medical services to
Palestinian refugees and other underprivileged people in Irbid at an affordable
price, as well as educational and financial support for fatherless children and
families. With the new medical equipment provided by the Japanese grant, the
clinic will be able to provide more accurate and immediate diagnosis and
discover a wide range of diseases.
Under the Grant Assistance for Grass-Roots Human Security
Projects, Japan has extended more than $10 million for 151 projects to
non-governmental organizations, schools, hospitals, and local governments in
Jordan since 1993.
