Asmara: The Emirates Red Crescent (ERC) has distributed clothes to 5,000
Eritrean children in six Eritrean provinces as part of a campaign to clothe
one million deprived children.
The initiative was launched by His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al
Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
The ERC delegation, headed by Ali Bin Shamil Al Kaabi, coordinated with the
Red Cross Society of Eritrea (RCSE) and officials of the Social Affairs
Department in the capital, Asmara, to choose beneficiaries of the campaign
in the areas populated by the most vulnerable. The initiative was welcomed
by residents and officials in the provinces covered by the campaign, which
is bringing help to thousands of disadvantaged children in Eritrea.
