• Initiative organised in cooperation with the UAE Red Crescent Society and Fujairah Welfare Association
In partnership with the UAE Red Crescent Society and Fujairah Welfare Association, Emirates National Oil Company (ENOC) has launched a charity collection drive throughout the Emirates as part of humanitarian initiatives being undertaken during the Holy Month of Ramadan.
Manned stands and donation boxes for the Red Crescent Society have been placed in five ENOC/EPPCO service stations in Dubai, two in Ras Al Khaimah, and seven across the Emirate of Fujairah. In addition, donation boxes for the Fujairah Welfare Association have been placed across all service stations in the emirate of Fujairah.
Saeed Abdullah Khoory, ENOC Group Chief Executive said: “The Holy Month of Ramadan is the ideal time for charity and reflection and it is our responsibility, as an organisation, to contribute towards enhancing the lives of people across the cross-section of the society. We urge everyone to donate as the funds raised will go to provide needy people access to basic food and clothes supply. We expect this charity drive to receive good response similar to our previous campaigns, “he added.
The charity collection drive is one of a series of community initiatives launched by ENOC during Ramadan to reach out and raise funds for the less fortunate across the world. As part of the Ramadan activities, the group also organises a series of lectures for its employees across different subsidiaries and departments. The lectures focus on a wide range of topics including “Ramadan & Change” and “The Spirit of Prayer” and are being held by Dr. Omar Abdul Kafi, a well-known motivator and speaker.
