The Second Nawras Goodwill Journey received a very warm welcome from the people when it touched base at the Mahout Women's Association yesterday afternoon bringing with it the message of sharing is caring which is in focus during the Holy Month of Ramadan.
The Nawras team gave a very pleasant surprise to the Women's Association in Mahout by donating a school minibus among other things. It is hoped that this would become a vehicle of hope and development for the children who need to commute between home and school especially during the hot months of the year.
Besides the bus, a number of other items which included computers, fax machines and sewing machines, were also handed over to the Women's Association, which has only been operating for one month. The kindergarten children also got their share of happiness in the form of toys and learning tools.
Maiya bint Saif Al Maharbi who heads the Women's Association appreciated the Nawras initiative to help charitable organisations and was very happy about the items donated by Nawras. Maiya was overjoyed when she learnt about the generous gift in the form of the minibus.
Mohammed Al Hasani, media communications head of Nawras said that the objective this time around is to highlight the lesser known volunteer and charity organisations like the newly-formed Mahout Women's Association.
