Laden with gifts and goodie bags, Modhesh visited several charity organizations in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and Saudi Arabia, to the delight of the children who got a chance to meet their favourite sunny character in the flesh.

Khulood Al Thani, Marketing Director of the DSFO, said:
"As a Goodwill Ambassador, Modhesh is an enduring symbol of warmth, happiness and hope and, as always, the tour shared Modhesh's cheerful and comforting presence with children across the GCC region. Children, who otherwise would not be able to attend events such as Dubai Summer Surprises, got a chance to participate in the bubbly and exciting atmosphere and Modhesh was met with great enthusiasm and joy everywhere he went."


The Modhesh Goodwill Tour, now in its fourth year, is an example of the value the Dubai Shopping Festival Office (DSFO) places on investing in regional communities by taking Modhesh to his little fans across the GCC. This year, Modhesh's whirlwind tour took him to the NBK Hospital in Kuwait, Bahrain's Hope Institute for Special Education, Child Care Home in Oman and Qatar's Hamad Medical Corporation, before a final stopover at the Help Center in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

At each stop, Modhesh distributed hugs and treats such as stuffed Modhesh toys, colourful back packs and educational CDs, living up to his role as the 'Ambassador of Smiles' by lighting up the faces of all the children with his amusing antics and exciting treats.
