Inspiring night of Sevice and donation work
Saturday, February 22, 2025
Under the theme “Heartbeat of Humanity”
The members of the IWC Club of Alexandria Capital, led by Dr. Suzan
Darwish and Honorary Secretary Dr. Ola Ewais had the honor of hosting
Professor Dr. Nihal Elshakankiri, Professor of Ophthalmology, at the
Syrian Club for a special symposium on the Pediatric Eye Unit at the
Faculty of Medicine, Alexandria University.
Dr. Elshakankiri shared the inspiring journey of establishing and
developing the unit, which has thrived through donations and volunteer
work. Over the past 30 years, the center has performed more than 30,000
free surgeries, providing critical eye care to children across Egypt,
Sudan, and numerous African nations.
Following the symposium, the club president had the pleasure of awarding
the Inner Wheel pin to our newest member, Dr. Manale Elewah, welcoming
her into our community.
We also took the opportunity to celebrate the birthday of our dear
friend Shahira Farouk, enjoying a warm and joyful gathering filled with
camaraderie and love.
