A helping
hand for
Syria may have seemingly been
forgotten by leaders around the
world – and by news stations
who have turned their attention
to the crisis in Egypt – but
Diamondlease hasn’t forgotten
the plight of the Syrian people.
The Management of
Diamondlease decided to donate the
ENTIRE amount that had been reserved
for their 2013 staff Iftar party to a fund
for children suffering in Syria. This was
approved by the Board of Directors and
our Chairman, Khalaf Al Habtoor.
A cheque for AED 25,000 was handed
over to Mr Hamdan Al Shamsi, Manager
Government Relations on July 22, 2013.
The United Nations says more than three
million people have fled the war in Syria,
and are living as refugees throughout
the region since the uprising against the
rule of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad
began in March 2011.
The donation was before the alleged
chemical attack in Syria on August 21.
It isn’t the first time Diamondlease
has donated to humanitarian causes.
Amongst others, in 2011 it made
donations to Pakistan following a massive
earthquake.
Diamondlease - we commend your
actions - and urge others to following
your example.
So long....

farewell!
