Chronic lung diseases such as broncho-pulmonary dysplasia in children, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in adults and asthma in both children and adults are among lung diseases that commonly inflict people and lead to prolonged suffering and disability. Care for these people can also be difficult and expensive especially if it involves the usage of life support devices.
Established by a group of medical professionals and corporate citizens fuelled with the determination to enable patients with lung diseases to get the best care and treatment and to live as healthily as possible, LFM aims to achieve the following:
- To receive and administer funds for education, research and charitable purposes in relation to respiratory diseases for the public’s welfare,
- To contribute towards scientific research, and publication for the purpose of improving the knowledge, skills and care for patients in this country,
- To organise and support schemes for the improvement of the standard of care of patients with lung diseases in this country, and
- To assist in the giving of relief to patients with chronic lung diseases.
Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
