The Foundation’s Contribution in Donating 313 Dowries to Couples Supported by the Welfare Organization of Khorasan Razavi

Our foundation proudly participated in the donation of 313 dowries to young couples under the support of the Welfare Organization in Khorasan Razavi province. This initiative aims to support families in need and help couples start their new lives with dignity and hope.

By providing these dowries, we hope to alleviate some of the financial burdens on these couples and empower them to build a brighter future. The foundation remains committed to supporting vulnerable communities and enhancing social welfare through various charitable activities.

Across the globe, millions of women face unique social and economic challenges due to the absence of family suppor or legal guardianship. These women are often left without protection, financial stability, or access to essential services. In many cultures, guardianship still plays a central role in determining a woman’s ability to work, study, or even receive medical care. When that safety net is missing, women can become highly vulnerable to poverty, discrimination, and social isolation.

This article explores the needs of women without guardians, the systemic challenges they face, and the vital role of charities and nonprofit organizations in providing both immediate relief and long-term empowerment.

Access to quality healthcarCharity Medical Services: Supporting Patients and the Community

Access to quality healthcare is one of the most pressing issues of our time. While medical science has advanced rapidly, millions of people worldwide still struggle to afford basic healthcare services. For disadvantaged groups — including low-income families, refugees, and people living in remote areas — the cost of treatments, medicines, and even simple consultations can feel impossible.

This is where charity medical services step in. These initiatives not only provide medical support to individuals in need but also strengthen entire communities by promoting health, dignity, and hope.

Four main barriers impede the realization of this right today.

First, persistent poverty restricts access to resources and opportunities needed for economic and social progress.

Second, armed conflicts disrupt development by destroying infrastructure and displacing populations, undermining stability essential for growth.

Third, systemic inequalities—whether based on gender, ethnicity, or class—limit equitable participation, perpetuating exclusion from development benefits.

Fourth, climate change inflicts severe environmental degradation, threatening livelihoods and hindering sustainable development efforts.

Besides these four main challenges, other factors make development even harder. Unilateral actions, ignoring international laws, lack of accountability for crimes like genocide, and rising militarization instead of cooperation between nations have made these problems worse.

A full report, including visual materials, will be presented as well.
