Pride Investment LLC, an Emirati family-owned business, has contributed Dh50 million to Awqaf Abu Dhabi’s Mother of the Nation Endowment for Orphans initiative, launched under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE.
The contribution will establish a sustainable source of funding for orphan care, providing them with a stable future and enhancing their quality of life in a way that contributes to building a healthy and balanced society.
This step reflects Pride Investment’s commitment to social responsibility and its belief in enhancing the quality of life for the most vulnerable members of society, while reinforcing the principles of generosity deeply rooted in the UAE’s culture.

Director General of the Endowments and Minors’ Funds Authority - Awqaf Abu Dhabi, His Excellency Fahad Abdulqader Al Qassim, said, “At Awqaf Abu Dhabi, we believe the entire community is a family for orphans in the UAE, and that we share a responsibility to provide the care and stability they need to thrive. Every contribution, regardless of its size, has the potential to create a lasting impact. Through the Mother of the Nation Endowment for Orphans, we are establishing an endowment model that provides sustainable funding for orphan care and turns one-time contributions into a lasting framework of giving. Through this initiative, we aim to build a brighter future rooted in compassion and social solidarity.”
Launched on February 18, 2026, the Mother of the Nation Endowment for Orphans initiative reflects the UAE’s longstanding belief in supporting orphans through an integrated network of families and institutions.
