Al Ain: Dar Zayed for Family Care has launched 30 community initiatives to be implemented during the current year in tribute to the Year of Zayed 2018.
Nabeel Al Daheri, Director General of the Dar Zayed, said the new initiatives reflect the values of faithfulness and loyalty deeply rooted in the Emirati society and the wise leadership.
“The Year of Zayed is a national occasion to highlight the qualities of the late Shaikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan and his local, regional and international achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity to draw lessons from Shaikh Zayed’s rich life experiences and challenges that he encountered and managed to overcome with his wisdom,” Al Daheri said.
Among the initiatives are ‘Zayed: The Founding Father of the Nation’, and the campaign ‘Zayed in Our Hearts’, among many others that aim to instill love of Shaikh Zayed in the hearts of young generations.
Seminars, lectures and poetry evenings along with voluntary initiatives will also mark the Year of Zayed.
On Ramadan 19, marking the Zayed Humanitarian Day, Dar Zayed will launch a charity campaign ‘For Zayed’ that involves a large participation by children and youth. Other initiatives will include social responsibility initiatives engaging children and youth with voluntary work with an aim to enhancing the spirit of volunteerism in youngsters.
