Ameer Al Mulla, executive manager, stated that he was looking forward to going with the volunteers and had great expectations from the volunteers, who will be part of Qatar’s institutions at all levels. “The society works as a charitable civil institute for the disabled, from all types of disabilities. It is based on the philosophy that it does not discriminate on the basis of religion, sex or language among residents in its services to the disabled,” said Al Mulla.
