Al Jalila Foundation for Childhood Cancer
By News Desk 1 September 9, 2024
Salik Company PJSC (Salik), the exclusive toll gate operator of the Emirate of Dubai, has donated
200,000AED to Al Jalila Foundation, which leads the Giving mission of Dubai Health, to support the care of
young cancer patients. Coinciding with Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, this contribution underscores
Salik’s commitment to enhancing community wellbeing, particularly in promoting children’s health. The
donation will help fund the treatment of young patients at Dubai Health’s Al Jalila Children’s Hospital, the first
children’s hospital in the UAE.
The donation was presented during a visit to Al Jalila Children’s Hospital where a plaque in honor of Salik’s
generous contribution will be placed on The Giving Wall. A delegation from Salik Company, led by the CEO
Ibrahim Haddad, then visited young patients. The delegation was received by Dr. Abdullah Al Khayat, the
CEO of Al Jalila Children’s, Dr. Mohammed Al Awadhi, the Deputy CEO of Al Jalila Children’s and Latifa
Hospital.
Ibrahim Haddad, Chief Executive Officer of Salik Company PJSC, said, “At Salik, community wellbeing is
part of our DNA, and our Corporate Social Responsibility is not a mere commitment, rather we view it as an
essential investment for a prosperous future. Through our support for this important cause, we aim to create
a positive impact on the lives of young patients, ensuring they receive the exceptional care they deserve.
This further reaffirms Salik’s dedication to securing the health of future generations, laying the foundation for
a brighter tomorrow, and fulfilling our responsibility to the broader community”.
