The Mother of the Nation Endowment for Orphans initiative has received a contribution of AED20 million from First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB).
Launched by the Endowments and Minors’ Funds Authority – Awqaf Abu Dhabi, the initiative seeks to establish a sustainable endowment (waqf) platform dedicated to orphan care across the UAE.
The initiative hopes to transforms community contributions into sustainable endowment assets invested through an approved endowment model that generates long-term returns dedicated to supporting orphans in education and healthcare, thereby enhancing their quality of life and contributing to a balanced and resilient society.
The contribution reflects the commitment of national financial institutions to support humanitarian initiatives aligned with the objectives of the UAE Year of the Family, while strengthening social cohesion through initiatives that invest in people and support the most vulnerable members of society.
