With a capacity of 2,000 students, the Dubai-based endowment university aims to
further diversify higher education options available in Dubai to domestic and
international students in undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.
International standards
His Excellency Mohammad Al Gergawi, Secretary General of Mohammed bin Rashid Al
Maktoum Global Initiatives, said the establishment of an endowment university
according to the highest international standards in Dubai reflects the vision of His
Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum of prioritizing education as the
core of human civilization, and the optimal path towards realizing aspirations of
prosperity, stability and development.
“The Mothers’ Endowment campaign, which aims to honour mothers by establishing an
endowment fund that supports the education of millions of people across
underprivileged communities, reflects a deep understanding of the true meaning of
charity and humanitarian work as means to drive progress and empower impoverished
individuals by providing them with education and the hope that they can create a better
future,” His Excellency Al Gergawi said.
“The charitable grant agreement signed with Sobha Realty is one step ahead towards
achieving the main objective of the Mothers’ Endowment campaign, by allowing
thousands of students from the UAE and the region to enroll and finish their higher
education within a model educational environment,” he added.
PNC Menon, Founder and Chairman of Sobha Realty, said: “The charitable grant
agreement signed with MBRGI is part of our collaboration to implement impactful
projects that benefit vulnerable populations across many countries. This agreement is
particularly important to Sobha Realty due to its association with Mohammed bin Rashid
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.
