The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) and Qatar Charity (QC) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to strengthen cooperation and partnership in order to achieve their common goals in various humanitarian and development fields of public interest.
The MoU was signed at Ashghal’s headquarters by Dr Saad bin Ahmed al Muhannadi, president of Ashghal, and Yousef bin Ahmed al Kuwari, CEO of QC.
The terms of the agreement focus on the joint coordination to support humanitarian and development efforts, activate voluntary initiatives and activities, participate in humanitarian work, organise field visits, support donations and organise training workshops, conferences and awareness events.
Kuwari said, "We look forward to establishing a solid foundation for cooperation to serve our community and humanitarian issues worldwide, which will reflect the bright face of the Qatari people and their love to do charity.”
Kuwari explained that voluntary and humanitarian work is not confined to any organisation, but it is a community responsibility, which involves the private sector, the public sector and the influential figures of the community, along with charities.
"I’m looking forward to signing cooperation and partnership agreements with ministries, government agencies, private institutions and companies, with the aim of making philanthropy a prevailing culture for all,” he said.
Mohannadi said, "The signing of the MoU with Qatar Charity today marks the culmination of the efforts that have been made and we will continue to help our brothers inside or outside our country.”
"Our latest cooperation with the charity included the distribution of 1,000 meals to the labourers working on Ashghal’s highway projects through the ‘We Feel You’ initiative. It also included the participation of Ashghal’s staff in the third edition of the ‘Competitors’ programme, which was launched by the charity in partnership with Al Quran Al Kareem Radio. As part of our participation in the programme, donations amounted to over QR1.2mn were collected to build a health centre and secondary school in Sudan,” he said.
The cooperation between Ashghal and the Qatar Charity would be expanded to include the implementation of charitable projects inside and outside the country. Ashghal will participate in a number of QC’s events and contribute to its many activities, Mohannadi added.
