As part of its ongoing efforts to foster social integration and support low-income groups, the Mohammed bin Rashid Housing Establishment (MBRHE) has announced the signing of an agreement with the Union Co-operative Society.

The initiative aims to support the MBRHE's investment projects and humanitarian and social care programmes, including housing solutions for low-income individuals in Dubai.

Under the agreement, the Union Co-operative Society has committed to providing financial support of up to AED 1 million, in addition to shopping cards valued at AED 500,000 to help families facing financial challenges, and beneficiaries of MBRHE's services.

The support is part of both parties' commitment to strengthen relationships and establish cooperation to achieve shared goals that have a positive impact on the lives of beneficiaries.
