Doha, Qatar: In a charitable initiative that reflects deep faith in the role of endowments in achieving social solidarity and enhancing family stability, the General Directorate of Endowments at the Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs announced the receipt of a new real estate endowment in the Al Gharrafa Al-Rayyan area. 

The endowment is a two-story villa with an annex and a majlis, donated by a generous female benefactor in support of debtors, through the Family and Childhood Endowment Fund.

According to the endowment deed, the donor stipulated that she benefit from the property during her lifetime. Upon her passing, the supervision of the endowment will transfer to the General Directorate of Endowments, which will then invest and allocate its revenues according to her conditions.

Records show that this is the donor’s first experience with endowment, making this a noteworthy initial contribution to the country’s institutional charitable endowment system.

The General Directorate of Endowments confirmed that the deed specifies the entire proceeds of the property are to benefit debtors via the Family and Childhood Endowment Fund — one of six endowment funds established by the department to serve various areas of charitable work.
