To enhance its work mechanisms and reflect positively on the local community.
Odaibat pointed out that since the beginning of this year, the Union has signed five agreements with associations in a number of governorates to support them in achieving their mission and goals to empower women and enhance their ability to achieve projects that will benefit them and their families, indicating that this support provided by the General Union of Charitable Societies is in accordance with the foundations and standards approved by the Union.
