Dr Sheikh Khalid bin Mohammed bin Ghanem Al Thani, Director General of the General Directorate of Endowments, said the programme reflected their commitment to bringing joy to children and their families, stemming from the fact that endowments are a form of social partnership.

He highlighted the children’s enthusiastic reception of the gifts, adding that Allah set Eid as a joyous occasion, which also serves noble purposes and higher goals.

The Waqf Fund for Family and Childhood was established to strengthen family ties, create a healthy environment for child upbringing, support beneficial projects and programs, and instil values and ethics in the younger generation.

The General Directorate of Endowments encouraged those interested in making charitable contributions to endowment funds to do so through approved channels and means.
