10 Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds Introduction

Khairal-Kuwait Charity Foundation is one of the distinguished Kuwaiti charitable societies in terms of its giving and specialization in the field of caring for or- phans, people with special needs, the elderly and peo- ple with chronic diseases. The foundation has, in the beginning, launched its activity, since its establishment in 2007, inside the State of Kuwait; and after having achieved reasonable success in its local humanitarian works and projects, the foundation has conveyed its experience outside Kuwait in order to express the orig- inality of the Kuwaiti society and its global entrepre- neurship in the humanitarian work.

The foundation has been able to achieve many rela- tions and cooperation protocols at the regional and international levels. So, we, in the Kuwait Center for Documentation of Humanitarian Action “FANAR”, have the honor to participate and cooperate with it to docu- ment its pioneering humanitarian course of action, and at the same time we call for more giving and distinc- tion, and we also encourage its sister charitable socie- ties and institutions so as to document their volunteer and humanitarian work so as to benefit from its suc- cessful experiences. This is for emphasizing the role of the State of Kuwait as a global center for humanitarian work, and its Emir as the leader of humanitarian work. Dr. Khalid Youssef Al-Shatti Editor-In-Chief of this Version and Chairman of Kuwait Center for Documentation of Humanitarian Work «Fanar»

14 Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds The Idea and The Establishment

The idea of establishing Khairal-Kuwait Charity Founda- tion came from the generous desire of Sheikha Firyal Al Duaij Al- Salman Al-Sabah after a visit to the orphanages of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor, and her thinking about developing the services provided to them as well as providing programs and activities for orphans so that the reward of this work can go to her late father Sheikh Duaij Al-Salman Al-Sabah and her late mother Mrs. Munira Al-Hilal Al- Mutairi. Thereafter, she presented the idea to a num- ber of those interested in this field who par- ticipated with her in establishing this Foun- dation. When the desire of all the founders met, Khairal-Kuwait Charity Foundation was Late Sheikh Late Mrs. Duaij Al-Salman Al-Sabah established as a non-profit public benefit Munira Al-Hilal Al-Mutairi agency, and it was officially declared by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor under the Ministerial Resolu- tion No. 266 of 2007 issued on December 31, 2007 as a charita- ble organization aiming to contribute to improving the condi- tions of orphans in the Social Care Houses, as well as enhancing the spirit of citizenship and the culture of development for this emerging category and the youth, besides the training of Kuwaiti cadres as social and psychological specialists, and creating job opportunities in addition to the necessary qualification for this category in cooperation with official and private authorities, as well as providing scholarships and cash prizes for this category in order to encourage them to excel be outstanding, besides organ- izing religious, educational and promotional activities for them, and implementing any other activity of charitable acts and pub- lic benefit according to what is approved by the board of direc- tors of the Foundation, in a manner that does not conflict with the purposes of its establishment as well as the official laws and decisions regulating it. After one year of the establishment, the founders proposed adding new segments, namely the elderly, people with special needs and chronic diseases.

Since its establishment in late 2007 and the beginning of 2008, Khairal-Kuwait Charity Foundation has embarked on a number of projects and activities of a social and humanitarian character, espe- cially with regard to orphans, and particularly the orphans of the social care houses in the Ministry of Social Affairs, in an effort to encourage and support the values of volunteer work because of its good and pioneering role in the advancement of the Kuwaiti society, and the spreading of mercy and interdependence among its various segments and groups, by providing an incubator envi- ronment for the targeted groups by the Foundation in order to im- prove their conditions and living, in accordance with the saying of the Messenger of Allah, may God bless him and grant him peace: (The example of the believers in their friendship, compassion, and sympathy like the body if one organ of it complains, the rest of the body will stay up to over the night to share feverish pains).

The Foundation has implemented a number of projects and ac- tivities, and we will discuss the most important projects and activi- ties that Khairal-Kuwait Charity Foundation is implementing within the State of Kuwait, including awareness, entertainment and cul- tural projects, training courses, assistance in forming families for orphans, effective cooperation and partnership agreements with local bodies, as follows:

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 29 Studies to Determine the Needs of Orphans

Foundation began its journey by preparing studies to find out the needs of orphans in terms of psycho- logical, health and physical aspects. A thorough study was prepared through a consulting office in which the priorities and needs that should be implemented for orphans were determined, and other comprehensive surveys were prepared on the level of residential build- ings in which orphans live, in order to know the size of the necessary needs. The Foundation made a deliber- ate plan for the projects and activities of the Founda- tion to serve orphans and provide for their needs, and an agreement was subsequently concluded with a legal consulting office to provide legal advice to the foun- dation, and the Foundation approved its work plan through studies that were implemented from the rec- ommendations that were approved.

The various entertainment facilities include trips to shopping malls, children›s entertainment cities, parks, sports clubs, theaters and cinemas.

The Foundation is also keen that the orphans enjoy the local seasonal atmosphere associated with specific occasions such as the establishment of spring camps on land, chalets, and swimming pools in the summer, so that orphans do not feel that there is no difference between them and their peers of unequal treatment, and that they live their lives naturally.

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 35 Providing Collective Meals

As wisdom says, «A healthy mind in a healthy body», Khairal-Kuwait Foundation is keen to take care of the health and food of orphans and to diversify the same away from the monotony, so it bears the cost of providing meals and foodstuffs on a regular basis, including the provision of nutritious meals such as breakfast, lunch, dinner and fast food in the most luxurious restaurants and hotels, in order to bring pleasure to their hearts. The matter is not limited to orphans only, but also includes their supervisors in order to create a family atmosphere between them and break the monotony and routine. The Foundation also is keen that the children›s diets be balanced and enjoying useful nutrients, in order to preserve their health. Therefore, these meals are made through companies, restaurants and hotels capable of preparing suitable meals for them, with the aim of bringing joy and pleasure to all orphans to try to integrate them into society and make them feel that there is no difference between them and their normal peers who have families who care for them and take care of them, their health and their food.

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 37 Education Seekers

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation pays great attention to the educational process for orphans and other groups of people with special needs in order to arm themselves with education and knowledge. This is based on the Foundation belief that “knowledge raises houses that have no support and ignorance destroys houses of honor and generosity.

The foundation has adopted many projects for the students who seek knowledge and education, and it incurred educational expenses and scholarship fees for the outstanding ones among them in order to obtain the best and most prestigious certificates from local and international universities and academies, with the aim of creating such a generation of orphans which is duly armed with science and knowledge in order to serve his country. Many orphans who were sponsored by the Foundation have obtained higher degrees such as masters and doctorates in various fields of science, and they were up to the responsibility that the Foundation granted to them. Also, the Foundation is quite keen to provide continuous support for orphan students, especially the outstanding ones among them, and it bears the costs of study no matter what their education costs, based on its humanitarian role in serving orphans and considering them as a part of the society and that they must be taken care of, for their best upgrading and advancement.

38 Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds Orphans treatment

The work of Khairal-Kuwait Foundation is not limited to providing an environment and social incubator for orphans and other groups targeted by the foundation, but has also worked to provide the necessary health care for them by providing examinations and treatment for sick orphan children.

From time to time, the Foundation conducts health awareness campaigns in cooperation with the Ministries of Social Affairs and Health to preserve the health of orphan children and considers them as a trust under its custody, so it does not feel burdened or bothered by them but rather it is keen to follow them on their health, and provide the necessary medicine for the patients from them regardless of the financial costs, even if some cases require to travel abroad.

sdgtfsdfhhgkhjkgg

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 39 Visiting and Inspecting Social Care Houses

The members of the board of directors of Khairal- Kuwait Foundation are always keen to visit and inspect the conditions of orphans in social care houses and family nurseries at the Ministry of Social Affairs so as to closely examine such cases that are being looked after or that need care by the Foundation, or to be informed of one of the construction or social projects, as well as visiting some institutions and authorities that take care of orphans or the people with special needs.

The aim of these visits is to strengthen the bonds of cooperation between the Foundation and the orphans and those who are in charge of their affairs. The visits in turn contribute to informing orphans that there are those who ask about them and their conditions and care about their affairs.

These visits also aim to closely examine the actual situation, whether of the social or construction projects, so that the necessary amendments can be conducted on them in the future and to avoid the negatives, if any. So, the Foundation is constantly keen to follow up these projects periodically during the implementation stages so as to produce any of these projects in its best form.

40 Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds Orphan Marriage and Formation of New Families

In order to integrate orphans into society and considering them as a building block of its components, Khairal-Kuwait Foundation has always been keen to support the social life of orphans so as to help them form new families that contribute to the advancement of the society, and also to compensate them for being deprived of their original families that they lost due to orphanhood. The Foundation contributes to bearing the costs of marriage for those who are wishing to start a new family life by providing direct financial support to help them meet some of the needs and expenses of marriage through direct sums of money. Also, the Foundation tries to bear the expense of renting a house for the spouses in the event that there are no good financial capabilities available for such couples.

The goal of the financial support for orphans› marriage is one of the most noble paths that the Foundation seeks to achieve, in order to preserve the social existence of orphans and to preserve them and cover them with the law of God, in order to form new families that can compensate them for their deprivation of the orphanhood they lived before.

sdgtfsdfhhgkhjkgg

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 41 Public and Religious Competitions

There is no doubt that orphans and people with special needs represent an important segment among the segments of the society that should not be neglected, so that the charitable organizations, societies and public benefit institutions can contribute to working to integrate them into the society. Public competitions, religious competitions and prizes for memorizing the Noble Qur’an are one of the ways to participate with other groups of society who have families and who can take care of them and look after their interests.

Hence, the Khairal-Kuwait Foundation has been focusing on developing the competitive sense of orphans and encouraging them to ride the wave of honest & fair competition in various fields of public life that suit their ages. And that can be achieved by supporting them and involving them in these competitions. These competitions aim to raise the awareness among orphans and encourage them to read books and learn about them, in addition to getting acquainted with public affairs, and it is a very important way to integrate orphans into society, especially since these competitions encourage honorable and praiseworthy competition that strengthens in the psyche of the orphan child the incentive to continue in life, to have the spirit of struggle and perseverance.

sdgtfsdfhhgkhjkgg

42 Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds Sports Activities

Sport is a rock on which desires are destroyed. It strengthens the will of those who practice it, and it encourages him to have the spirit of perseverance and patience in order to achieve tangible sports progress.

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation reassures that sport is an important and fundamental aspect of orphans› lives that cannot be dispensed with. Rather, it must be supported and encouraged by holding sports competitions between orphans so as to encourage them to love sports by holding marathons, sports matches and offering prizes to those who achieve advanced positions in these competitions, in order to preserve the body and health of orphans.

Also, the Foundation has always been sure to make them attend the official football and sports championships in Kuwait so that they could share a feeling with the masses in the stands that they are a part of the society and not strangers to it.

sdgtfsdfhhgkhjkgg

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 43 Celebration of the Arab Orphan Day

The Arab Orphan Day is one of the most important Arab events that take place in all countries of the Arab world, including Kuwait. The Foundation has confirmed its support for these events and their establishment or participation in them locally in cooperation with the Ministry of Social Affairs, believing that the Arab orphan child must be served in an integrated manner, and through such events the experiences and aspects of integration with Arab countries and between each other are highlighted during the month of April of each year.

Perhaps the link that binds the Arab orphan in all of our Arab countries is that our honorable Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, recommended us to the orphan when he said: (I and the sponsor of the orphan will be in Paradise like this, and he pointed with the forefinger and the middle and separated between them). This is what gave the policy of dealing with an Arab orphan a special flavor that is characterized by tenderness and compassion, as the Foundation was keen to communicate with the relevant Arab actors in this aspect to honor the orphan.

sdgtfsdfhhgkhjkgg

44 Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds Sponsoring Orphans Ceremonies and Festivals

Bringing pleasure and joy into the psyches and hearts of orphans is the greatest charity and the best favor, through which its owner will get the reward. From this standpoint, Khairal-Kuwait Foundation organizes many parties and entertainment festivals that will raise the spirits of orphans, especially children among them, in order to erase the orphanhood›s streak from their foreheads. The Foundation was quite keen that these parties & ceremonies are sponsored by senior state officials so that this disadvantaged group feels that they are not forgotten and that they are always in in the minds of the state and decision makers. The Foundation was also keen to sponsor and organize ceremonies for honoring the outstanding students in their studies from the orphan children, as well as organizing entertainment parties for the disabled and their families to honor them for their donation. The sponsorship of the parties includes private or public events, whether religious or national, such as Gargian, Children›s Day, national holidays, Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, in order to bring joy and happiness to them.

sdgtfsdfhhgkhjkgg

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 45 Media Campaign to Embrace Orphans by Families

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation has implemented a media and awareness campaign in Kuwaiti society under the title: «Color Your Life» for accepting orphans in the homes of Kuwaiti families and their integration with these families and their children, because families usually hesitate to embrace orphans in their homes expecting the difficulty of accepting these orphans by their families, their children and the society around them. The Foundation succeeded in this incubation campaign, in which many volunteers, media professionals and artists participated. This campaign had a positive impact on Kuwaiti society, and gave a positive idea about incubating orphans in accordance with the provisions of Islamic law. So, many families began to embrace orphans with their children so as to live with them in their homes, in stable and reassuring families, and they are brought up in a sound psychological, educational and health upbringing.

sdgtfsdfhhgkhjkgg

46 Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds Membership of the Union of Charitable Societies

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation sought, many years ago, to present a proposal to create a special union for Kuwaiti charitable societies, and the Foundation was keen to call for the establishment of a union in order to coordinate efforts among themselves and exchange experiences and experiments. Upon establishing the Kuwaiti Charitable Societies Union, Khairal-Kuwait Foundation was keen to join this union, which helps to unify the efforts of charitable societies in the State of Kuwait. The Chairman of the Board of Directors of Khairal-Kuwait Foundation, Mr. Nasser Muhammad Al-Ayyar, has been elected to be a member of the Board of Directors of the Union of Charitable Societies in the 2020 session. The union has made great efforts during the Corona crisis in unifying and coordinating efforts between charitable societies, the Ministry of Social Affairs and civil & voluntary institutions. The union has also implemented many coordination projects to help the country face the Corona Virus.

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 47 Participate in National Holidays

The development of the national feeling among the Kuwaiti people is one of the most important factors that Khairal-Kuwait Foundation seeks to develop, so that the orphan who holds the nationality of Kuwait grows up to love this country, be affiliated to it and be loyal to it, because Kuwait is like the mother and father to all of them, especially since it took it upon itself to raise them and bring them up in good morals and good ideals. Perhaps one of the best occasions in which the national feeling is embodied in the national holiday season is Independence Day on February 25 and Liberation Day on February 26. Khairal- Kuwait Foundation has been quite keen to revive this anniversary annually as well as its participation of orphans in celebrating it by holding festivals and celebrations. The parties on national holidays are not limited to celebrating only the parties held in social care houses, but also include visits to museums, theaters and major celebrations to strengthen orphans› sense of belonging to this dear homeland.

48 Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds Lectures and Seminars

The educational and religious lectures and seminars for orphans and other groups that benefit from the services of Khairal-Kuwait Foundation are one of the goals of the organization to create a generation that is aware, educated, adheres to its religion and maintains its pillars.

The Foundation has sponsored many seminars and lectures for orphans according to each age group to educate them and work on their integration into the society through it.

Also, the Foundation focuses on holding religious lectures on various occasions, for example receiving the month of Ramadan to clarify and simplify the obligation according to the age of each group among them. The aim of these lectures and seminars is to increase the dose of general knowledge and education in various life and religious matters, and to facilitate the delivery of information to the parties benefiting from these lectures and seminars, which are a quick means of education and knowledge acquisition in a quick and short manner.

Khairal-Kuwait Foundation - a Procession of 14 Years of Good Deeds 49 Training Courses and Workshops

One of the important and vital roles of Khairal- Kuwait Foundation in the field of serving orphans and people with disabilities is to encourage volunteer work and enhance its role in building the Kuwaiti society, by raising awareness of the rights, needs and concerns of these groups and how to help them, whether financially, morally or socially, in any way appropriate for the party wishing to help them as well as how to deal with them so as to try to improve their conditions and situations.

Among the objectives of establishing the foundation is to train Kuwaiti cadres for a number of social and psychological specialists so as to deal with orphans. Also, one of the goals of the organization is to work on training orphans and qualifying them to create job opportunities for this category in cooperation with official and private authorities. There is no doubt that the whole world today depends on workshops and training courses to deliver information or acquire skills, quickly, concise and accurate at the same time.
