President’s Message

Dear fellow Khyberians,

It is both an honor and a privilege to serve as President of the Khyber Medical College Alumni Association of North America. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each and every member, donor, and supporter whose unwavering commitment and generosity continue to strengthen our mission and expand our impact.

For decades, KMCAANA has remained dedicated to giving back to our alma mater and to the broader community we proudly serve. Your support has enabled us to sustain and grow initiatives that truly make a difference.

Among our proudest achievements is our scholarship program for deserving and financially challenged students. For the past 20 years, we have helped bright and dedicated medical students pursue their dreams, ensuring that financial hardship does not stand in the way of education and excellence. These scholarships are not just financial assistance—they are investments in the future of healthcare.

Through your generosity, we have also sponsored corneal transplant program for deserving patients, restoring sight and transforming lives. The gift of vision is one of the most profound contributions we can make, and your support has made this possible for many individuals and families.

In times of crisis, our community has stood united. Our flood relief efforts reflect the compassion and solidarity that define KMCAANA. Together, we have provided timely assistance to affected communities, demonstrating that our commitment extends beyond medicine to humanity itself.

By organizing and supporting educational conferences in collaboration with Khyber Medical College, we continue to promote academic excellence, knowledge exchange, and global collaboration. These initiatives strengthen ties between alumni and our alma mater while fostering continued learning and innovation.

None of these accomplishments would be possible without your dedication, trust, and generosity. Whether through financial contributions, volunteer service, or active participation, each of you plays a vital role in advancing our shared vision. As we look to the future, we remain committed to expanding our programs, strengthening alumni engagement, and enhancing our impact. Together, we will continue to uphold the proud legacy of Khyber Medical College and serve as ambassadors of excellence, compassion, and service.

I especially want to thank the executive council of KMCAANA: President-elect Shazia Ahsan Savul , secretary Arslan Khan, treasurer Hameed Ahmad, immediate past president Sharif Uz Zaman Khan and executive director Rashid Hanif for their continued support. Your support makes everything we do possible.

With sincere appreciation,

M. Tufail Ijaz
President KMCAANA 2026-27
