The Public Works Authority’s (Ashghal) team participating in Qatar Charity’s (QC) ‘Competitors-3’ programme paid a visit to South Darfur to know about the nature and site of the project planned to be implemented as part of the competition with the Ministry of Commerce and Industry’s team in the first round of the third season of the programme.
The visit came as part of the voluntary efforts made by Ashghal to finance a multi-service charity project in South Darfur within the framework of the ‘Competitors’ programme, a radio broadcast produced by Qatar Charity (QC) in partnership with Al Quran
Al Kareem Radio.
The project involves the construction of a secondary school with an area of 512 square-metres and a health centre at a cost of QR2,260,900.
It is worth mentioning that the ‘Competitors’ programme aims at involving the Qatari community with new and innovative ways in charitable work through competition. It also aims at spreading the culture and values of charitable work through the media.
The donation in favour of the project can easily be made through QC’s website and App as well as through its 25 branches within the country and 92 collection points in commercial complexes.
Ashghal’s team consisted of Dr Sheikh Ahmed al Buainain, Captain Yousef Munif Nasser, Abdul Aziz Ismail al Heidos, Yasser Mustafa al Janahi and Hamad Nasser Rashid al Nuaimi.
The team was received at the Nyala Airport by Dr Jamal Idri, commissioner of the Humanitarian Aid Commission, who appreciated Qatar’s efforts to achieve peace and reconstruction through Qatar Charity by implementing projects in the fields of education, health, water and social welfare, in addition of the construction of houses and model villages.
The delegation also met with Governor of the South Darfur State Adam al Faki, who lauded Qatar’s role in cooperation and achieving stability in the state.
He said Qatar Charity has signed several agreements in water and health sectors, which contributed to the stability of the state.
The delegation also visited educational facilities in the region and the service complex under construction, which is funded by Qatar Fund For Development (QFFD), in addition to paying a visit to voluntary return sites lacking health, education, places of worship, water and other social amenities.
Dr Buainain said the visit aimed to convey the needs of the region to donors and benefactors in Qatar.
He added that the team, in cooperation with Qatar Charity, would market the project to contribute to education and health in the region.
