Tunneled Dialysis Catheters

Ravān Foundation is dedicated to improving access to tunneled dialysis catheters for low-income patients battling end-stage kidney disease. These catheters are crucial for patients who require long-term dialysis treatment, especially those living outside major urban centers. Our foundation works tirelessly to ensure these life-saving devices are available to those in need, regardless of their financial constraints.

Peritoneal Dialysis Starter Kits

In addition to tunneled dialysis catheters, we provide peritoneal dialysis starter kits to patients who face challenges in accessing traditional hemodialysis. These kits allow patients to perform dialysis in the comfort of their homes, offering a more flexible and accessible treatment option. Our efforts focus on distributing these kits to low-income patients, ensuring they receive the necessary support to manage their condition effectively.

Local and International Fundraising

Ravān Foundation coordinates fundraising efforts both within Iran and internationally to support our mission. By partnering with local physicians and medical centers, we identify patients in critical need and arrange for the necessary procedures. Our fundraising initiatives are crucial in overcoming financial barriers, allowing us to provide essential medical supplies and support to those who would otherwise go without.
