A delegation from the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) visited a number of schools in Uganda and Tanzania under the theme, “Dubai Reaches out to Africa’ where two school buses, 400 bags containing school supplies and 50 bicycles were provided in cooperation with Al-Futtaim Motors and Dar Al-BeirSociety in Dubai. This formed a part of the “Global Contributions” of the RTA Charity Foundation and also an extension of the ‘Year of Giving’ and the ‘Year of Zayed’; bearing lofty human values.

Mohammed Obaid Al Mulla, RTA Board Member and Chairman of RTA’s Charity Foundation High Committee said, “The visit to Uganda and Tanzania reflects RTA’s commitment to making charitable activities overseas in cooperation with Al-Futtaim Motors and Dar Al-Ber Society in Dubai. Two buses were donated such that each bus will serve several schools. 50 bicycles were distributed to students in both countries assisting them with transportation in rugged areas, which is a lofty educational message that we seek to realise. Moreover, each school was granted 200 school bags that include school supplies and essentials in a bid to support the needy in remote areas.
