Workers participate in “Raeyana Campaign” at Al Shahaniya organised by Qatar Charity.
Under Raeyana Campaign, sponsored by the Ministry of Municipality and Environment, Qatar Charity (QC) and its partners organised an Open Day for 100 workers of many manors. The Open Day conducted a number of entertainment activities and provided some health services.
The campaign’s activities took place at Khalifa Al Maliki manor, in which QC distributed bags containing winter clothes and toiletries to 100 workers.
Red Crescent offered the workers a course on first aid and a lecture about personal hygiene and protection from diseases.
Aster Medical Center conducted medical check-ups for targeted workers including diabetes test, blood pressure, and cholesterol test.
Head of Communications Department at Ministry of Municipality and Environment said that Raeyana Campaign has achieved a great success and demonstrated the bright side of Qatar in regard to human rights in general and workers’ rights in particular. Raeyana Campaign targeted workers who are unknown to the society due to their work nature. The Ministry of Municipality and Environment and its charity organisations including Qatar Charity provided its services to those needy workers wherever their location is. He praised the efforts of QC and its partners in the campaign, which promote environmental protection and noble human values.
Khalifa Mohammed Al Malki, the owner of the manor which hosted the Open Day, expressed his sincere thanks for QC for their role in local development and supporting workers who made great efforts in the development process of the state.
Al Malki added that providing the appropriate place for the campaign’s activities is the least a citizen can provide to achieve noble and humanitarian goals that serve the public interest.
Dr Ahmed Edilbi, head of health awareness at Qatari Red Crescent, said that the Red Crescent is happy with the participation of QC in this humanitarian move aiming for promoting human values, and enabling workers to lead a decent life, under the sponsorship of the Ministry of Municipality and Environment, to provide workers with a training course in first aid.
Dr Ahmed Moez, a representative of Aster Medical Center, expressed his happiness for sharing QC and the Ministry of Municipality and Environment in this important humanitarian activity by conducting medical examinations for workers including diabetes tests and blood pressure.
Beneficiaries of Raeyana Campaign expressed their sincere thanks and appreciation to QC for this generous act, which helped them practice some recreational activists.
