The generous donation from Sheikha Fatima will also involves renaming the Dh172-million Deena Tower—located on Abu Dhabi's Khalifa Bin Zayed The First Street—to 'Life Tower', in honour of the healthcare drive.
'Healthcare is a fundamental human right that must be accessible to everyone. The Life Endowment embodies this right through compassion and solidarity," said Sheikh Fatima who is also Chairwoman of the General Women's Union, President of the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood and Supreme Chairperson of the Family Development Foundation (FDF).
"Our support for this endowment reflects the role of Emirati women in fostering a culture of giving and building a cohesive society that prioritises the well-being of its most vulnerable members. Join us in this noble mission."
