Dhiraagu donated MVR 300,000 for the Palestinian cause during the PSM telethon.
State owned enterprise, Dhivehi Raajjeyge Gulhun Plc (Dhiraagu) has donated MVR 300,000 for Palestinian humanitarian reliefs during the telethon held yesterday at Public Service Media (PSM).
Dhiraagu also donated the same amount for the Palestinian cause last year. The company also opened a 'Dhiraagu Pay' wallet so that people would be able to donate to the people of Palestine via International Aid Campaign (IAC)'s Gaza emergency relief fund.
This telethon which ran from 08:00 am until midnight on June 12 raised a total of MVR 14 million for the cause.
PSM's Managing Director Zeena Zahir assured that this telethon would be audited and that they would ensure the money goes to the Palestinian cause via the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA).
"We will hand over the funds to the Foreign Ministry, [and] the Foreign Ministry will do the handover to UNRWA," she said.
