The new initiative seeks to promote social integration and empowerment of ‘Dreama’ children, and raising awareness of social responsibility towards this important category of society.
Doha: The Orphan Care Center (Dreama) has launched an awareness campaign under the logo ‘Right and Duty’ with the support of QTerminals.
The campaign aims to highlight some of the challenges facing orphan children, and educating the society about their rights and the duty towards them.
Dreama seeks through this one month campaign to reach all segments of society in order to educate them on the issues orphan children experience in the society. Noor Al Mohannadi, Director of the Society Awareness Office at Dreama, said that the Center seeks through this campaign to educate the society on the most prominent issues and challenges facing orphan children and their integration into society, as the centre plays a major role in providing family fostering and continuous follow-up for orphan children.
She said that launching Dreama’s campaign ‘Right and Duty’ comes from its deep belief in the importance of integrating the children of Dreama in society as a social principle and out of the positive role played by fostering families in upbringing, stability and well-being of the fostered child.
Noor Al Mohannadi said: “Through this campaign, and other similar activities, we seek promoting social integration and empowerment of Dreama children, raising awareness of social responsibility towards this important category of society, and working to enhance the society’s view of the orphan child, besides enhancing the centre’s efforts to ensure the stability of this group and enhance their self-confidence.”
She added that Dreama appreciated the role of companies and individuals in supporting the most needy social groups, thus fulfilling its moral obligation to implement social responsibility.
The local legislations issued by the State and the special international covenants to which the State is a party are concerned with all child rights equally, such as the right to education, the right to health and the right to life. The State realises the importance of caring for the young, and providing the appropriate conditions for the development of their talents in various fields through sound education.
Mohannadi emphasised that this campaign contributes to supporting charity to the orphan, encouraging and supporting them, and consolidating the principles of rights and equality within society.
She said: “We are working continuously through public awareness campaigns in spreading our awareness messages, whether through direct campaigns with the public or through social media platforms, which we currently focus heavily on, taking into consideration COVID-19 pandemic. We also extend our sincere thanks to QTerminals for their support for the ‘Right and Duty’ campaign.”
Abdul Hadi Fahad Al Hajri, Head of Support Services Sector at QTerminals Company, said: “We are happy to support Dreama and ‘Right and Duty’ campaign. We believe in Dreama Center’s mission and vision to serve orphan children and integrate them into society.”
He added:” Within the framework of the company’s society partnership, QTerminals will work with Dreama staff for a whole month to achieve the goals of the campaign out of our belief in the importance of supporting humanitarian work in general, and the children of Dreama in particular. This expresses social solidarity in order to reach the principles of compassion and cooperation for the interest of the beneficiary groups.
