Qatar Charity (QC) is preparing to hold the closing ceremony for the third season of its “Khair Homes” programme, a competition for Qatari families to perform good deeds, in conjunction with Ramadan campaigns.

The programme is held annually through creative activities within the scope of community entrepreneurship.The QC has received the proceeds of family exhibitions implemented by households during the holy month of Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr, which were reviewed by the programme committee to ensure their compliance with the specified terms and conditions.Eight families contested in the third edition of the programme.They designed their exhibitions and implemented various projects as participants of the competition.The first three families who managed to collect the largest profits from their family exhibitions will be honoured, in addition to the three families who excelled in the field of entrepreneurship and designing a creative idea in the corner of their homes.There were many criteria for the participants to win the competition, including production by participating families, getting children involved, selling products, and using recyclable materials in designing the corner.The QC, through this programme, is keen to get all the sections of the community involved in charitable work.Each family allocates and designs a corner, as a charitable exhibition, at home where homemade sweets and toys are sold.The family invites relatives and their children to visit the corner and buy the items.The profits are collected to implement a charitable project, chosen by the families.
