continuously hosting events and adopting best practices to build a strong, promising generation and a
cohesive society.”

reflecting her dedication to children’s development: “We strongly believe that the nurturing and care of
children stands as the cornerstone of any successful society. The role of children in shaping a nation’s future

success in ensuring their optimal upbringing.”

H.E. Al Rumaithi further noted that the Foundation highly values the dedicated work of organisations focused
on child development, highlighting their alignment with the vision of the UAE’s wise leadership to channel
