Al Maktoum Global Initiatives, as we are keen to support charity and humanitarian
initiatives launched by the UAE to help millions around the world.”
“We are thrilled to be among contributors to the Mothers’ Endowment campaign, and
the entity responsible for developing the upcoming campus building in Dubai. We
strongly believe that investing in the endowment university will reap huge benefits in the
future, both locally and regionally, positively impacting development efforts while
solidifying Dubai’s status as a global destination, and an incubator of knowledge,” he
added.

opportunities, reflects how a culture of endowments has matured and evolved in the
UAE.

endowment that ranks 1st. Stanford comes next and is also a private non-profit
university with a US $36.5 billion endowment, while MIT, 3rd globally, has a US $23.5
