Khaltoum is a widow who has brought up seven children on her own, and given them good education.
Sultan Al Midfa “This celebration is part of our corporate social responsibility aimed at showing appreciation for the role mothers play in the development of families and community, by instilling values and morality in their children to create a generation that can face all odds and carry out their responsibilities. We would like to thank all the workers at Albarza Centre for providing medical and psychological care to these mothers and fathers.”
