Diya & Aliya Fund Testimonials
After receiving financial aid from the Diya & Aliya fund “I and my wife did not sleep because of happiness. My children lives changed from the previous year. We bought them the drugs and the medical preparation they need. Yes there was no cure for this disease but their lives changed. Finally, my message to the donors. Your donations draw smiles on our children faces. If you do not see it or feel it, we feel it and we see it on our children faces. Continue your donations to FIRST. You and FIRST are the drawers of happiness on the children faces all over the world.“
“I would like to thank the Diya & Aliya Friends Fund for the support they have rendered to me and my family. We received the award with great thanks and words cannot express how we feel about this help in order for us to buy medicine for our little boy suffering from this skin disorder. I am an ichhyosis parent to my little boy based in Zambia and we are so grateful that we shall now [be able] to buy the creams needed for our boy.“
“Thank you so much for the funds. I have received it. This will help me much in treating my children. I, my wife and my children thank you a lot and hope you all the best.”
“Thank you very much, we got the money and we are most grateful to FIRST and the whole team.“
“I would like to thank the donors and all of you who were involved in this amazing funding program to help us around the world.“
