Prince of Fujairah Donates USD100,000 for Taekwondo Programs to Empower Refugees



At the opening ceremony of the 5th Fujairah Open Taekwondo Championships, the Crown Prince of Fujairah donated USD100, 000 to Taekwondo charity programs for refugees.

“The growth of refugee numbers globally is one of the greatest crises facing humanity today,”
H.H.Sheikh Mohammed Bin Hamad Al Sharqi told World Taekwondo Federation President Chungwon Choue. “I make this donation because taekwondo is an easy-to-deploy tool that delivers self-discipline and self-confidence to refugees, so effectively upgrading their lifestyles.”

The prince donated the monies to the Taekwondo Humanitarian Foundation, or THF, a charitable initiative established in Switzerland. The foundation’s mission is to empower refugee children via the martial art and sport of taekwondo, as well as through related educational programs that teach Olympic values.

The prince made his donation at the opening of the three-day championships, which attracted 589 athletes from 35 countries.
