Dubai: A nationwide campaign to support Rohingya refugees raised AED40,159,814 on its second day, with residents across the country showing full support.
The campaign was launched last Friday under the theme " From the UAE for Rohingya Children and Women", in a bid to provide more than 1 million displaced refugees with food supplies, medical assistance, clean water, education and housing.
The campaign, which will continue for two weeks, will be jointly aired live by a number of TV channels, starting 4 pm through 7 pm.
Donations can be made across multiple platforms set by the participating charities, including the Emirates Red Crescent.
