: With a AED 1 million contribution, AQUA Properties joined a growing list of contributors to the Fathers’ Endowment campaign, launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. The campaign honours fathers in the UAE by establishing a sustainable endowment fund to provide treatment and healthcare for the less fortunate.

 AQUA Properties’ contribution is part of a community-wide response to the campaign, an initiative of Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI). The campaign honours fathers by allowing individuals to donate in their name. The campaign promotes the values of honouring parents, compassion, and solidarity and helps strengthen the UAE's position as a leader in charitable and humanitarian work.

 The campaign also aims to further establish the concept of charitable endowments, and create a community-wide movement that supports its aims.

 Long standing humanitarian commitment

Ali Ashraf Tumbi, Founder and Chairman of AQUA Properties, stated that the Fathers' Endowment campaign, launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, embodies the UAE's long standing humanitarian commitment to aiding the less fortunate globally, evident since the nation’s foundation and exemplified by its numerous charitable initiatives, particularly during Ramadan.

Tumbi said: “AQUA Properties is pleased to honour fathers by contributing to this impactful campaign. We are honoured to support the campaign’s aim of providing sustainable healthcare to the underprivileged, as well as MBRGI’s extensive charitable work around the world.”
