Tameer sponsors Mohammed Bin Sulayem's 'Rally Car Experience' charity drive

As a sponsor of the thrilling charity-driven event, the firm presented Dhs75,000 donation for the purpose raising fund for charity, and has been inspired by the Dubai Cares initiative of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai. The charities that will receive the proceeds gained from the event will be selected by Mohammed Bin Sulayem.

The track is approximately 1km long and was purpose built for the occasion by Dubai Municipality. Bin Sulayem drove a Ford Escort World Rally Car - one of the most famous and successful cars in international rallying in the 1990s - the same model which helped in win the 14th FIA Middle East Rally Championship in 1999.

There were no other vehicles involved, with Mohammed driving the five sponsors' representatives around the track one by one at rally speed.

"Our sponsorship of this event, not only reflects the love for sports that many at Tameer have, but is also consistent with our mission to be an important force that is helping the community and those less fortunate," said Omar Ayesh, President of Tameer Holding speaking of the firm's involvement in the event.
