Donors' generosity into the hands of the Koh Pich patients

With 6,743,700 Riel and 1264 dollars collected from all the generous donors, the team of 22/11 Foundation has been working to find the best way through which these donations can go directly to Koh Pich patients.

Regarding the patients at the Kalmet Hospital as having received more attention from various donors, 22/11 Foundation has reserved priorities for the Koh Pich patients in Preah Kosamak, Preah Ketmealea, and Russia Hospital. All the donations contributed into this foundation are to be distributed among the patients in these hospitals based on the level of severity of injury and on the accessibility of patients for the team. Each patient being carefully treated in Emergency Room receives 30 US dollars from our funds, while patients with less serious conditions get 30,000 riels each. This amount is to be given out among 5 patients in Preach Ketmealea Hospital, 158 (8 with serious conditions) in Preah Kosamak Hospital, and 66 (7 in critical conditions) in Russia Hospital. 600 US dollars was also set aside to help relieve 3 families with members deceased from the incident - 300 US dollars to the family with 5 children of both dead parents, 200 US dollars to the family having lost 2 children, and 100 US dollars to the family with one dead member.

A small part of the accumulated donations has also been used to buy some tokens for staff at the hospitals, as proof to our appreciation for their hard work in helping the patients.

5 days after the tragedy of the deadly stampede incident, the volunteers of the 22/11 Foundation went to distribute a part of 6,743,700 Riel + 1264 dollars in donations to Koh Pich patients staying at Russia Hospital, leaving the remaining money for the patients at Kosamak Hospital, at Preah Ketmealea Hospital and possibly at Kalmet Hospital.

Our work at Russia Hospital went pretty well and was pleasantly welcomed by some of the doctors, although a few did put on their worst face towards us. The team was greatly energized, and our grief and sorrow amazingly bettered, with each enveloped handed onto their hands of each patients, or of their family, since they all accepted with joy and appreciation expressed in their smiles and words of gratitude.
