Select your preferred donation method to support AZ Foundation USA.
AZ Foundation USA is a physician-founded American charity providing free healthcare and education to deserving and underprivileged communities in Pakistan — a country of 241 million people with only a few hundred neurologists, and over 25 million children out of school.
AZF is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.
Pakistan faces a growing healthcare and education crisis. Noncommunicable diseases account for over 60% of all deaths, an estimated 350,000 new strokes occur every year, and the country has roughly one neurologist for every million people. Advanced medical facilities remain concentrated in major cities, placing specialist care beyond the reach of millions. At the same time, over 25 million children are out of school, deepening the cycle of poverty and limited opportunity.
AZ Foundation USA is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organisation based in Texas, USA, established to ensure that the ability to pay never determines access to lifesaving medical care or education. Founded and governed by experienced, board-certified physicians and professionals committed to humanitarian service, the Foundation operates two free specialist clinics in Karachi — the Dr. Kazi T. Uzair Neurology Center and the Dr. Raghid Farooqi Memorial Internal Medicine Clinic — providing completely free consultations, diagnostics and ongoing care. A third facility, a purpose-built specialty clinic, is now in the planning stage.

See how compassionate medical care reaches patients through AZ Foundation-supported free specialist clinics in Karachi.
In 1989, Dr. Kazi Uzair passed away during his final year of residency in New York. Thirty years later, the
physicians who trained alongside him came together to build free clinics in the city where they all began.
The level of attention and care we receive from the doctors here is exceptional. In my experience, it is difficult to find this standard of care anywhere else in Pakistan.
My children, my brother and I are all receiving treatment here. The clinic provides us with free medicines and, in most cases, also carries out the required laboratory tests without charging us anything.
The cleanliness of the clinic is remarkable. I bring my mother here, complete her registration, and the doctors carefully check her blood sugar and blood pressure before providing her with free medicines. The doctors are excellent, and we are very satisfied with the care she receives.
Every donation funds free consultations, diagnostics, and medication for patients who have no other option — and brings healthcare education to communities that need it most. Not a rupee is charged — ever.
There are many ways to support AZ Foundation — donate, fundraise, volunteer your skills, or simply share our mission within your network. Every action, big or small, helps us reach more patients and communities in need.
