Mohamad Dandashi Contributes AED 5 Million In Support Of The “Mother Of The Nation Endowment For Orphans” Initiative

Mohamad Dandashi has contributed AED 5 million in support of the “Mother of the Nation Endowment for Orphans” initiative, reaffirming the importance of strengthening endowment (waqf) culture as a sustainable development model that ensures continued support for the most vulnerable members of society.

Launched by Awqaf Abu Dhabi under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, the initiative aims to establish a long-term endowment funding source dedicated to orphan care. Through the investment of community contributions and the allocation of returns to education, healthcare and living support, the initiative enhances orphans’ quality of life while reinforcing social cohesion.

Mohammad Almortada AlDandashi said:“The endowment represents a forward-looking and sustainable model that ensures the continuity and growth of giving. The ‘Mother of the Nation Endowment for Orphans’ initiative embodies this concept in its strongest form. This contribution stems from my belief in the importance of supporting and empowering orphans to build a more stable and confident future, within a shared social responsibility that unites us all.”

Inspired by the values and principles championed by Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, Chairwoman of the General Women’s Union, President of the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood, and Supreme Chairwoman of the Family Development Foundation, ‘Mother of the Nation’, the initiative builds on the UAE’s globally recognised humanitarian approach, guided by the wise directives of the nation’s leadership. Launched in line with the Year of Family, the initiative reaffirms Awqaf Abu Dhabi’s commitment to aligning its programmes with national priorities, in service of the best interests of society.
