Doha, Qatar: The General Directorate of Endowments at the Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs has announced the receipt of a cash endowment worth QR100,000 in support of the “Waqf Al-Wuqoof” initiative, contributed by a philanthropist who had previously made endowments managed under the Directorate.

According to the endowment deed, the donor stipulated that the annual returns of the endowment be reinvested to establish a new endowment each year. This innovative approach creates a cumulative impact, multiplying the benefits over time and expanding charitable initiatives in a sustainable manner.

The entire contribution was allocated to “Waqf Al-Wuqoof,” which falls under the umbrella of the Waqf Fund for Benevolence and Piety—one of six specialised funds established by the Directorate to support public good initiatives not restricted to a specific sector.

Head of the Marketing Section at the Department of Waqf Funds, Ghanem Abdul Latif Al-Rumaihi, said the contribution reflects the donor’s commitment to continuous giving and awareness of the importance of endowment as a source of lasting benefit. He added that “Waqf Al-Wuqoof” represents an innovative developmental vision, as it reinvests the returns of the original endowment annually to create new endowments.
