College of Medicine

The Charitable Deeds Association in the city of Mosul sent a letter of thanks and appreciation to the Dean of the College of Medicine Prof Dr Basil M. Natheer Saeed on 21 December 2019. Dr Rana M. Rauf, the Official of the Scientific Affairs Division, received it on behalf of the dean. This letter of thanks and appreciation comes as a sympathy for the initiative of a number of the college students (especially the second stage) with humanitarian, educational and awareness activities entitled “Heartbeat Pulse”, for the benefit of the Charitable Society for Orphans Housing affiliated with the Charitable Activities Association in Mosul during the period October to December 2019. The campaign included multiple field visits to the aforementioned complex to see the conditions of orphans in the complex and enhance communication with them followed by the distribution of food baskets to the families of the complex. Also, the members of the campaign including students accompanied by the Official of the Scientific Affairs Division, presented educational and awareness items in specific health aspects, and some principles of first aid. The visits also included educational, entertaining and motivational items in order to enhance the cultural and knowledge level of orphaned children, improve their ability to communicate, and express their opinions and dreams. It is worth noting that the campaign was funded through donations from the college students in addition to the teaching staff.
