GAZA: Kuwait's financial donations have been invested for renovating an educational institution and securing winter clothes for Palestinian families in Gaza. The local 'Al-Daraj Zakat Committee' inaugurated the teaching center on Wednesday, simultaneously with the distribution of the clothes to scores of limited income families.
Rami Al-Ashi, the committee director, said in a statement to KUNA 'Doctor Zuhair Scientific Educational Center' was opened after overhauling its sections and re-equipping it, with financial contributions by the Kuwaiti International Islamic Charity Organization. The center, staffed by highly qualified teachers, will give free additional education to students of all levels and organize computer courses for the youth.
It also plans to offer charge-free lessons for orphans, poor children and reasonable-income youth for token fees. Al-Ashi expressed gratitude to His Highness the Amir of the State of Kuwait, Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, and the great Kuwaiti people, noting that Kuwait has been generous in dispatching aid to the enclave in a campaign themed, "Kuwait on your side."
He also extended thanks to the Kuwaiti "relief and development convoys society," for supporting limited income families in the strip. The latest humanitarian action by the association was delivering winter clothes to Palestinian students. - KUNA
