Emirati Businessman Gheyath Mohammad Gheyath Contributes AED 7 Million To Support Fathers' Endowment Campaign

Gheyath Mohammad Gheyath, an Emirati businessman and owner of the GINCO Group, has pledged AED7 million to the Fathers' Endowment campaign. This initiative, launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, aims to honour fathers in the UAE. The campaign's goal is to create a sustainable endowment fund of AED1 billion to provide healthcare for the poor and needy.

The Fathers' Endowment campaign is part of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI). It encourages community involvement in philanthropy during Ramadan. The campaign focuses on sustainable giving through endowments, ensuring continuous support for essential services like healthcare for those in need.

Gheyath remarked that the campaign, initiated by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, significantly boosts charitable contributions. "The Fathers' Endowment campaign...provides individuals, institutions, and philanthropists with an opportunity to fulfill their social responsibilities and support the UAE's humanitarian initiatives," he stated. These initiatives have a substantial impact globally each year.

The campaign's primary aim is to ensure healthcare access for vulnerable groups. This access is crucial for improving lives and empowering communities. By supporting this initiative, contributors help fund healthcare sustainably, addressing a basic human need directly.

The Fathers' Endowment campaign welcomes contributions from both individuals and institutions through six main channels. Donations can be made via the campaign's website (Fathersfund.ae) or by calling a dedicated toll-free number (800 4999). Bank transfers in UAE dirhams are also accepted at Emirates Islamic Bank using IBAN: AE020340003518492868201.

For those preferring SMS donations, sending "Father" to specific numbers allows contributions of varying amounts: AED10 (1034), AED50 (1035), AED100 (1036), and AED500 (1038) for Etisalat by e& and du users. Additional platforms include the DubaiNow app under the "Donations" tab and Dubai's Jood platform (Jood.ae).

This initiative continues to gather momentum as it seeks donations for its endowment fund. By fostering community-wide participation, it ensures ongoing support for essential services like healthcare for those who need it most.
