Tamkeen – For Minor Orphans

The program was allocated to the orphans of the shareholders and was given a purchase card worth AED 500, valid for 6 months. Under this program, 300 cards were registered and issued from 01/05/2018 to 31/07/2018, and due to high demand, the program was reopened for an additional 17 orphans. The number was reached and cards were issued.

Terms of Registration:

• Applicant must be child of a female shareholder and under the age of 18. If the child is over age of 18, he must be a Shareholder of Union Coop and the card will be valid until he reaches the age of 21 only.
• Applicant must be orphan from father’s side and must be registered with Awqaf and Minors Affairs Foundation (AMAF) or any other Government organization that proves he is an Orphan.
• Shareholder may not combine multiple programs (SA’ADA, Irada and Tamkeen) under the name of a single beneficiary. For instance, if the Shareholder himself is an orphan or a person of Determination and receives subsidy from Government or Charitable authority, he should choose one program only.
• ‘Mother’ shareholder may combine the three programs (SA’ADA, Irada and Tamkeen) given the condition she is receiving financial aid from charitable or government organization, on behalf of her son, who happen to be ‘person of determination’ and happen to have another orphan son that deserves financial aid.
• Mother shareholder has the right to register in the program for more than one of her orphan sons, under 18 years of age, if she provides the supporting documents for the same. Every orphan child will be issued a card.
