UMS announces donating Alamein Festival proceeds to Decent Life initiative

The Initiative aims at improving the living conditions and daily life of Egyptian citizens, within a framework of integration and unity of efforts among the state institutions, private sector entities, civil society and development partners in Egypt.
The initiative also provides health care, medical services, surgeries and prosthetic devices to these groups. Moreover, it aims to develop Egypt’s poorest villages, according to the poverty map, provides job opportunities and supports orphan girls to get married.
