Successful events followed, such as our participation in a dialogue session during the activities of the First International UAE Rare Disease Society Congress and the Ramadan Wishes Market Initiative, in cooperation with Marina Mall Abu Dhabi, in addition to the success of the Ramadan campaigns, ‘30 Days 30 Wishes’ and ‘Wishes Dirham,’ with the participation of the foundation’s ambassadors and many social media personalities,” he added.

Additionally, we are delighted to have collaborated with Abu Dhabi Music and Arts Foundation (ADMAF) for the first time to grant the 6,000th wish to one of our young patients,” Al Zubaidi explained.
