AMMAN — The handover ceremony of medical equipment was held on Wednesday 26th of June, in the presence of Okuyama Jiro, ambassador of Japan to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, and Sameer Abd-Aljawad, chairman of the Jemzo Charity Association, according to a statement for The Jordan Times.

In September 2023, the Government of Japan extended a grant of $72,245 to the Jemzo Charity Association for medical equipment under the scheme called Grant Assistance for Grass-roots Human Security Projects.

This grant assistance aims to enhance the quality of medical services provided at the medical centre in Zarqa, through the provision of a new Ultrasound, Panoramic Dental X-ray, and Intraoral Digital Imaging Sensor. Jemzo Charity Association, which provides medical, educational, and financial support to underprivileged Jordanians and refugees, opened a medical centre in Zarqa in 2011. 

Since then, they have been providing medical services to vulnerable people at an affordable price or free of charge, the statement said.
