The UAE’s Fathers’ Endowment campaign, initiated by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, has exceeded Dh3.3 billion in contributions, aiming to provide sustainable healthcare to those in need during Ramadan.
In a testament to the UAE’s enduring commitment to philanthropy, the Fathers’ Endowment campaign has successfully raised over Dh3.3 billion since its launch. This initiative, introduced by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, seeks to honor fathers by establishing a sustainable endowment fund dedicated to offering healthcare and treatment to underprivileged communities during the holy month of Ramadan.
The campaign has witnessed widespread participation, with contributions from major donors, businesses, individuals, and both public and private sector organizations. This extensive engagement underscores the deeply rooted culture of giving within the UAE, reflecting a collective effort to improve the quality of life for vulnerable populations.
Since its inception, the campaign has attracted over 160,560 contributors, highlighting the community’s solidarity and commitment to the cause. The funds raised are earmarked to provide sustainable healthcare support in underserved communities, aiming to enhance overall well-being and foster community stability.
The initiative operates under the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI), promoting the noble values of honoring parents, compassion, and solidarity. It also strengthens the UAE’s position as a leader in charitable and humanitarian work, while promoting the concept of endowments and creating a broad community movement that supports its aims.
Donations to the Fathers’ Endowment campaign can be made through various channels, including the campaign’s website, a dedicated call center, bank transfers, SMS, the DubaiNow app, and Dubai’s community contributions platform, Jood. This accessibility ensures that individuals and organizations can easily participate in this noble cause, further solidifying the UAE’s reputation as a global capital for charitable and humanitarian work.
As Ramadan approaches, the success of the Fathers’ Endowment campaign serves as an inspiring example of collective generosity and the enduring spirit of giving that defines the UAE.
