A new initiative called "From UAE Children to the Children of the World" has been launched to strengthen the values of generosity and sharing.

The drive is a collaboration between the Family Development Foundation and Emirates Red Crescent (ERC).

Children are encouraged to share the gifts with others from around the world.

The initiative also aims to develop a generation who can positively contribute to their family and society.

Toys and games can be donated via 17 Family Development Foundation centres across Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Al Dhafra.

The gifts will be distributed globally by the ERC.
