The objective of the Society for the Sabah Heart Fund (SOSHF) is to assist those patients who need to have heart surgery and / or other medical or surgical attention either not obtainable in Malaysia or are of such nature that it is considered by the Director of Medical Services to be in the best interest of the patients that they be treated outside Sabah.
Today medical treatment for patients cost an average RM35,000 per patient and it is almost impossible to send every patient on the waiting list.
Whilst the list of patients seeking treatment keeps us growing, the SOSHF can only hope for more donations to pour in, thus ensuring a second chance of life to the less fortunate. The society depends on public and government support to carry out its aims and objective.
