As part of its ongoing humanitarian response in Somalia, Qatar Charity has delivered two containers containing 250 tents to the National Disaster Management Authority to support its shelter initiatives.

This project highlights the commitment of Qatari donors to Qatar Charity’s global humanitarian efforts, aiming to alleviate the suffering of disaster-affected communities and provide them with adequate shelter in Somalia. It also underscores Qatar Charity’s dedication to collaborating with relevant local authorities to enhance humanitarian action and achieve the greatest impact.

The delivery ceremony was attended by His Excellency Dr. Abdullah bin Salem Al Nuaimi, Qatar’s Ambassador to Somalia, Dr. Ahmed Abd Adam, Deputy Chairman of the National Disaster Management Authority, and Mr. Abdul Fattah Adam Maalim, Director of Qatar Charity’s office in Somalia.
