Solidarity Walk on National Day

The fourth edition of the ‘Solidarity Walk’ will take place on December 2 at Mamzar tracks as the UAE celebrates its 47th National Day.

The event, which will begin at 8am, is being organised by Team Sports UAE. With more than 500 people expected to participate, the walk aims to showcase their love and gratitude for the country that has provided equal growth opportunities to people of more than 200 nationalities.

The walk will support orphans’ education, through a fund-raising event for Manar Al Iman charity private school, which has enrolled 800 Syrian children aged between six and 16, educating them for free after they fled the war-torn country.

Around 100 students from the school will take part. Donations will be collected through charity boxes placed along the track. The Dh50 registration fees will also be given to the cause.
