DOHA: Al Sulaiti Law Firm organised the Second Annual Ramadan Gala in Support of Education Above All (EAA) on Sunday night at Mondrian Hotel Doha.
This event was conceptualised by Al Sulaiti Law firm to support Education Above All Foundation specifically ‘Educate a Child Programme’. This event is a yearly legacy shared with EAC/EAA and Al Sulaiti Law Firm is aiming to raise the largest amount of money by making it a very special event, yet enhancing the importance of CSR and education.
The event was attended by ambassadors of various countries including South Korea, South Africa, Sweden, Georgia, Belgium, Benin and Turkey.
The event was hosted by Mayada Khalil Abdo, Al Jazeera television journalist. During the gala Abdo, talked about poverty in the developing world saying, “Many people feel deep sorrow over it but conclude that there is nothing we can do. The scale of poverty is immense and we seem powerless to stop it. Such despair is understandable, but the facts tell a very different story.
“While poverty is indeed extreme and widespread, it is easy to forget just how many people there are in the developed world, and how powerful our donations as reputable organizations in Qatar can be in making a difference.”
Mubarak Al Sulaiti, Chairman of Al Sulaiti Law Firm, discussed the importance of education, saying, “We are inspired by EAA’s dedication and efforts made towards education and securing those less fortunate and undergoing unfortunate circumstances to still receive a right to their education. They build schools and maintain that these schools are safe and operating. The event’s main purpose is to highlight their efforts and accomplishments.”
Mohammad Jassim Al Naama, representative from Education Above All Foundation, also discussed the importance of donations and how they could help children get a decent education. During the gala, journalists from English and Arabic media outlets were awarded for their hard work and dedication in raising awareness to such initiatives.
