Dear Community Member,
Thank you to all who generously donated to raise funds to buy oxygen concentrators and help our community in Algeria during this pandemic. As of this morning we have raised $15,900 and the fundraising is still ongoing. Due to the high demand for this product all over the world and the dire need for them in Algeria, the Maghreb American Health Foundation (MAHF) wired yesterday to the supplier an initial payment of $17,500 to buy 25 oxygen concentrators that will be delivered by UPS to Algeria around August 11th, 2021. MAHF used some of its operating funds to complete the payment for these first 25 concentrators; the cost includes the purchase of the concentrators along with shipping and handling.
The situation in Algeria is still dire and we are still asking for donations to hopefully reach our goal of $70,000 (100 concentrators). Please forward this email to family and friends and let’s hopefully reach this goal. You can find detailed information on this fundraising and donate at:

Your donation is tax-exempt and all who donated will receive soon a receipt by email. Thank you so much for your generosity during these difficult times. We will keep you updated on the fundraising and the status of this initial shipment of the 25 oxygen concentrators. Again, thank you all for your generosity and kindness. All the best.
