“The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiative has helped 130 million people in 116 countries. HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid’s campaign “Dubai Cares” is one of the largest humanitarian programs in the world, with the aim of fighting poverty, disseminating knowledge, and educating the poor,” the article read.
Last month, Dubai Cares launched two education programs in Rwanda, which are set to benefit more than 18,600 young people and children.
An emergency support program was also rolled out on Tuesday, September 12, providing the safe return of about 4,800 children to school in Mosul, Iraq, after the city was liberated from the hands of a militant group after three years.
The article continued, “Sheikh Mohammed had the vision to promote development and humanitarian work in third-world countries. In this regard, he has several organizations that work together to develop healthcare projects and support relief efforts around the world.”
Other Arab men on the list are Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal (Saudi Arabia), Sulaiman Abdul Aziz Al Rajhi (Saudi Arabia), Fouad Makhzoumi (Lebanon), and Carlos Slim Helú (Lebanon).
