However, One Hope Charity had received 195 applications for assistances in the past six months through alternative channels.
The applicants had different needs. As long as they met the qualifications, ONE HOPE CHARITY will assist, where ONE HOPE CHARITY had approved 147 applications with various types of needs such as medical expenses, breathing aids, beds and wheelchairs, physiotherapy and acupuncture fees, relocating lonely elderly in nursing homes, dialysis fees, medication fees, cataract surgery, low-amount surgical fees, prosthetics, among others.
