Waqf Al-Hayat Allocates Immediate Support for 140 Patients’ Needs
In a significant humanitarian initiative, the Waqf and Minor’s Fund Management Authority (Abu Dhabi Waqf) announced the allocation of immediate support to meet the needs of 140 patients from the most vulnerable groups, as part of the “Waqf Al-Hayat” campaign. This initiative, in collaboration with the Department of Health – Abu Dhabi, reflects the commitment of the involved parties to enhance healthcare in the Emirati community. Since the launch of the campaign, approximately 900 million dirhams have been raised in less than a month, surpassing its original goals, thanks to the support of over 200,000 donors who believe in a strong humanitarian message.
Transitioning to Tangible Impact
The initiative marks a new phase aimed at achieving positive, tangible results, as “Waqf Al-Hayat” represents an important transition from fundraising to implementing actual support. Abu Dhabi Waqf has begun utilizing the returns generated from endowment investments, in addition to financial donations, to provide ongoing support for high-priority medical cases. This approach enhances the capacity of the healthcare system in Abu Dhabi to meet patients’ needs and ensures they receive the necessary healthcare.
Innovative Financial Model Focused on Sustainability
The campaign embodies a strategic financial model centered around investing charitable capital to create sustainable income streams that serve the community. The returns will be used to cover the costs of treating chronic diseases and to enhance health infrastructure. This approach contributes to reinvesting resources to increase financial returns and strengthen the ability to address future health needs.
Directing Support to the Most Vulnerable Groups
The campaign allocates its support to marginalized groups, including patients with chronic illnesses and individuals with disabilities, to ensure they receive continuous and immediate healthcare. The “Waqf Al-Hayat” company, established by Abu Dhabi Waqf, manages the endowment assets and oversees directing investment returns toward health projects that provide maximum benefit to needy patients. The adopted governance system ensures that funding decisions are based on clear criteria and accurate information regarding medical needs.
Strategic Collaboration with the Department of Health
The Department of Health in Abu Dhabi works to identify deserving medical cases through a direct communication mechanism with private healthcare facilities. This mechanism is based on precise criteria that assess patients’ needs, enhancing the “Waqf Al-Hayat” initiative and confirming the integration of health policies with charitable investments. These joint efforts help provide urgent and appropriate care and affirm everyone’s commitment to achieving effective sustainability in healthcare.
This campaign plays an effective role in directing support to those in need through an innovative financial model that ensures adherence to the highest standards of transparency and efficiency. “Waqf Al-Hayat” represents a significant leap toward transforming financial support into a tangible impact on the lives of the most vulnerable individuals, reflecting the spirit of solidarity and mutual support within the community.
