Honouring the memory of her parents - the late King Hussein bin Talal and Queen Alia Al Hussein, Princess Haya bint Hussein; the wife of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, donated an undisclosed amount that will feed over 30,000 families in her home country, Jordan. The donation was made in her name as well as her son Zayed and her daughter Jalila.
Taking to Instagram, Princess Haya first posted a series of tributes to her parents - especially to her mother whom she recalls to be fondly known as the 'Mother of the Poor'. Queen Alia passed away on February 9th, 1977.
Earlier, she had also posted a heartfelt tribute to her father who passed away on February 7th, 1999. Princess Haya wrote that the late Jordanian ruler will always be the father of the country in the hearts of its many residents.
After honouring her parents, she made the announcement earlier on February 10 that she will be donating to Tkiyet Um Ali - a charity organization that Princess Haya once chaired and established in the memory of her father to aid those in need. While the amount remains unknown, feeding 30,000 families is a task that requires a pretty penny.
