Within the framework of the Rofaqa Initiative, Qatar Charity (QCC) organised a new Umrah trip for 20 of its sponsored orphans in Ghana. The eight-day trip comprised religious, cultural, and educational programmes, a statement said.
Yousef al-Khulaifi, supervisor of the Rofaqaa Initiative for Child and Orphan Care Around the World said: “This trip is an extension of previous trips that were organised for orphans in several countries this year, specifically for the orphans of Somalia, Pakistan, and Tunisia, and we consider this part of our continuing efforts in Qatar Charity.”
Engineer Hassan Odeh, director of QC’s office in Ghana, who participated with the orphans in this Umrah, said: “The trip was special on all levels and had important faith and educational dimensions.”
Odeh added: “The trip had a significant impact in deepening the understanding of Islamic culture and Islamic history among the participating orphans after linking all visits to important stations in the Prophet’s biography.”
The orphans who performed Umrah expressed their great happiness with the opportunity provided to them by QC and expressed their thanks to their sponsors in Qatar.
