The Dolphin Energy Doha Dash 2015 will donate a percentage of all registration fees to a new playground for the Shafallah Centre.
The Doha Dash, now in its third year, is taking place at Losail International Circuit on February 10, as part of Qatar National Sport Day.
It is firmly established as one of the most popular events in the Doha sporting calendar, offering something for everyone.
Dolphin Energy has announced that a percentage of each registration for the event will be pledged towards the Shafallah Centre, and will help build a playground for its students.
The Shafallah Centre, under the patronage of HH Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, is a centre that provides comprehensive educational, medical, rehabilitation, social, vocational and recreational services for individuals with intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorders and their families.
Dolphin Energy general manager Adel Ahmed al-Buainain said: “Dolphin Energy is proud to announce that the Doha Dash will support the Shafallah Centre for the second year.
“The Doha Dash was created to support the vision behind Qatar National Sport Day, encouraging citizens and residents of Qatar to lead a healthy and physical lifestyle.”
The Shafallah Centre provides services and care to both Qatari and expatriates and currently has around 720 students who receive daily support free of charge.
Shafallah Centre managing director Mohamed al-Sada said: “The Doha Dash has chosen to pledge a donation toward the Shafallah Centre for the second year.
“The 2015 event will raise money toward a new playground which we are building for our children. It is a great cause and will be a wonderful new addition to our existing facilities.
“Thank you to everyone involved in the Doha Dash, and of course to Dolphin Energy who have chosen to pledge their donation to us.”
The Doha Dash aims to promote a healthy lifestyle among people in Qatar.
