During Hag Al Leilah, children visit houses in their neighbourhood and receive sweets and nuts, as a symbol of gratitude for the blessings the community has received.
On Hag Al Leilah this year, Dubai Properties Group made a special effort to celebrate the event and encouraged all of its employees to participate in the spirit of the season as part of its corporate responsibility (CR) programme 'Mubadra'.
Children embellished in Emirati flag colours were cordially greeted by DPG's top CEOs as they visited every department in the organization.
Fareda Abdullah, Executive Director of Human Capital of Dubai Properties Group, said:
"Traditionally during Hag El Leilah, gifts in the form of sweets are handed out to children and the needy. We are delighted to have celebrated this cultural heritage with our employees and their families."
Established in 2007, Mubadra, the CR arm of DPG, aims to contribute to the overall benefit of the society by participating in community related activities. Through Mubadra, DPG looks to invest in its employees, the environment, community and the stakeholders.
Since its inception, Mubadra has implemented several CR programmes such as the Kids Open Day, DPG Marathon and the World Environment Day for the collective good of its stakeholders.
