The Ministry of Education has taken a commendable step in this regard, forming a committee to collect an amount of 2000 dinars from all governorates of Iraq, similar to last year when the subscription was conducted. The funds were distributed to the patients staying in the hospital by a committee there in the form of monthly salaries. We, in turn, appeal to our brothers, members of the teaching staff, the students, and their parents to extend a helping hand to these miserable needy people. We offer our thanks and appreciation to all schools throughout the Iraqi Republic that contributed by providing donations to these students, headed by Al-Hariri Secondary School for Girls, which provided the highest amount, which is 100 dinars.
