Dubai Police has contributed AED 1 million to the Fathers' Endowment campaign, launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and the Ruler of Dubai.
The campaign honours fathers in the UAE by establishing a sustainable endowment fund to provide treatment and healthcare for the poor and underprivileged.
Operating under the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI), the campaign reflects the vision of Sheikh Mohammed for promoting sustainable humanitarian and charitable work that utilises community participation and innovative programmes, while making every effort to assist people in underprivileged communities, empowering them to live with dignity and meet their basic needs, with a particular focus on providing sustainable healthcare.
Since its launch, the campaign has garnered community-wide participation from government entities, the private sector, businessmen and individuals, demonstrating exceptional solidarity. This highlights the role of Ramadan campaigns as a key global humanitarian movement, further solidifying the UAE's leading philanthropic role and its far-reaching global impact.
Lieutenant-General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police, affirmed that the campaign builds upon the successes of previous Ramadan campaigns. This year, it further reinforces the values of social cohesion through honouring parents and strengthens the culture of giving, which is deeply rooted in the UAE society.
