The Cove Rotana Resort Ras Al Khaimah in collaboration with RAK Free Trade Zone organized a Charity Iftar for 33 orphans from Al Rahma Charity Association in Ras Khaimah along with their mothers and supervisors on August 5th, 2012 at The Cove Rotana Resort. The children participated in fun activities and competitions before enjoying a specially prepared Iftar buffet. The activities ended with surprise gifts sponsored by RAK Free Trade Zone that were offered to the children and their mothers.
“It was a great honour to host the children from Al Rahma Charity Association with their mothers. I’m proud of what our team did today, it was a reward for us to experience the joy and happiness of the children and we sincerely hope that there will be soon another opportunity to welcome them back.” said Andreas Mueller, General Manager of The Cove Rotana Resort.
Commenting on RAK FTZ’s support for the event, Maryam Al Murshedi, Deputy Director General of RAK FTZ, said: “We are honoured to sponsor the charity Iftar, which comes as part of our commitment to support the social causes and community programmes that are in line with our mission and vision. We have joined hands with the cause to play our part within our community, and to reach out to the less privileged children in the society.”
“It was a great evening for the kids and a pleasurable experience for every one of us at The Cove Rotana Resort”, said a member of Al Rahma Charity Association.
