Tariq Al Futtaim Investments Contributes AED 3 Million To Support Fathers' Endowment Campaign In UAE

Tariq Al Futtaim Investments has pledged AED 3 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 by creating a sustainable fund. The fund will provide healthcare and treatment for those in need, reflecting the UAE's commitment to charitable work.

The campaign is part of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI). It encourages individuals to donate in their fathers' names, promoting values like compassion and solidarity. This effort strengthens the UAE's leadership in humanitarian activities and highlights the importance of honouring parents.

By establishing charitable endowments, the campaign aligns with the UAE's long-term vision for philanthropy. It aims to sustain a culture of giving where healthcare is crucial for social stability and development. Tariq Al Futtaim, Chairman of Tariq Al Futtaim Investments, praised the campaign for embodying generosity within the UAE community.

Al Futtaim stated that this Ramadan campaign reflects their commitment to using resources to alleviate suffering. He emphasised that providing necessary treatment and medication to impoverished patients aligns with both the Fathers' Endowment campaign and MBRGI's global humanitarian goals.

The campaign continues to welcome contributions from both institutions and individuals through various channels. Donations can be made via the campaign’s website, a dedicated call centre, bank transfers, SMS, DubaiNow app, or Jood platform. These options make it easy for people to participate in this charitable cause.
