An Emirati businessman has donated AED 35 million to the Fathers’ Endowment campaign, which was launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. This campaign was created to honour fathers in the UAE by setting up a long-term fund that will help provide healthcare and treatment for people in need.

The campaign is run by the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI). It reflects the vision of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid to promote sustainable charity work that involves the community. The goal is to create lasting support systems that help underprivileged people live with dignity and meet their basic needs, with a special focus on healthcare.
