For the 5th year running, Emirates Auction joins as a strategic partner of Ramadan charity campaigns launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
Emirates Auction organizes the Most Noble Number charity auction jointly with Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI). The auction’s proceeds this year will go towards the Fathers’ Endowment campaign, which honours fathers in the UAE by establishing a sustainable endowment fund to provide healthcare and treatment for the less fortunate.
Hosted at the Armani Hotel Dubai in Burj Khalifa on 15 March, the Most Noble Number auction is expected to see the participation of prominent businessmen and philanthropists.
Ongoing charity
His Excellency Abdullah Matar Al Mannai, Chairman and Managing Director of Emirates Auction, said: “The Fathers' Endowment campaign stands as another success for the sustainable humanitarian and charitable work envisioned by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. His Highness Sheikh Mohammed's annual Ramadan campaigns exemplify community collaboration in supporting the less fortunate with their essential needs. This year's focus on healthcare is particularly significant, given its profound impact on quality of life, empowerment, and stability. The campaign's importance is further amplified by its alignment with the 'Year of Community' declared by His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, reinforcing the values of social cohesion through its focus on honouring fathers.”
His Excellency Al Mannai added: “We are honoured to support the Fathers' Endowment campaign by organizing this charity auction by providing the necessary resources to ensure its success. Our shared goal is to honour fathers by contributing to the endowment fund that provides healthcare for the poor and less fortunate.”
