Tasjeel initiative to help orphans and underprivileged people

Dubai: In light of the success of the first cycle, Tasjeel has launched its annual ‘Dirham wa'Bas,' a charitable initiative aimed at raising funds for people in need this Ramadan.

Tasjeel is an Enoc and Roads Transport Authority (RTA) joint venture for speedy vehicle testing and registration services.

Under ‘Dirham wa'Bas,' Tasjeel will donate Dh1 from every car registration fee towards the local charity organisation Beit Al Khair Society, which provides financial support to orphans and underprivileged people in the UAE. The initiative follows the success of last year's campaign which raised Dh100,000.

Ayas Bin Hendi, General Manager of Enoc Tasjeel, said the ‘Dirham wa'Bas,' initiative complements the various efforts undertaken by the Enoc Group in Ramadan to support and assist the underprivileged in the UAE.

"Last year's campaign brought hope to many orphans and people in need. This year we aim to raise further funds to support more individuals and make a bigger difference," he added.

In a bid to offer motorists more convenience and flexibility during Ramadan, Tasjeel has adjusted its working hours at all service centres except for the JAFZA, Hatta, and Khor Fakkan sites, which will be operational every day from 8am to 2pm. The remaining centres are now open from 8am to 3pm and from 9pm until midnight, Saturday to Thursday.
