An online charity auction of special numbers in Abu Dhabi has raised more than AED 78.3 million to support the Mothers' Endowment campaign.

The third edition of The Most Noble Numbers auction was organised by Abu Dhabi Police, in collaboration with Emirates Auction.

It showcased a collection of 555 Abu Dhabi licence plates for regular vehicles, featuring an array of distinctive numbers such as category 1's number 80, category 16's number 111, and category 11's number 14.

The auction also included plate numbers specifically curated for motorcycles and classic cars.

"The robust turnout for the 3rd edition of The Most Noble Numbers online charity auction underscores the UAE community's commitment to fostering values of social cohesion and solidarity by extending aid to the most vulnerable groups," said Staff Major General Pilot Faris Khalaf Al Mazrouei, Abu Dhabi Police Commander-in-Chief.

The Mothers’ Endowment campaign is dedicated to honouring mothers and providing educational opportunities to millions in underserved communities.

It aims to establish an AED 1 billion endowment fund to sustainably support the education of individuals around the world, providing them with the necessary tools and skills to lead independent lives.
