Zayn took to Twitter to talk about some facts and figures he received directly from the mobile clinic in Syria. He decided to put the news out there as the information he received is very joyous and positive. “It brought a smile to my face”, said Sami Zayn.

The clinic has been very helpful to Syrians

In September 2020, the clinic was able to provide 4,321 medical services, and on an average of 144 services a day. Sami claimed that most of these services were life-saving services. The success of this initiative left him overjoyed.

Zayn thanked the crew and everyone who donated and participated in this collective initiative. He further encouraged and urged people to donate any amount that’s possible at the Sami For Syria website.

The Syrian American Medical Society (SAMS) teamed up with the WWE Intercontinental Champion to begin this initiative. The goal of the initiative is to collect $75,000. This is because payments for medications, fuel, warehouse rent and other operational needs are still pending.
