Tarahum Charity Foundation donates $817,000 to the Rental Disputes Center
This initiative is part of the ongoing institutional collaboration between the two entities, established last year through a memorandum of understanding
The Rental Disputes Center (RDC) has received a substantial donation of US $817,000 from the Tarahum Charity Foundation to settle the financial obligations of 46 cases related to rental disputes in Dubai.
This initiative is part of the ongoing institutional collaboration between the two entities, established last year through a memorandum of understanding (MoU) that was renewed in November 2025. It supports judicial and humanitarian efforts and launches joint initiatives aligned with Dubai’s strategy to expand community partnerships and strengthen the role of charitable institutions in public welfare.
The MoU aligns with the objectives of the Yad AlKhair Committee, which supports humanitarian cases burdened with rental obligations. Since then, the committee has enabled the implementation of humanitarian programs that promote solidarity, social responsibility, and aid those in need, in line with the Government of Dubai’s vision of promoting social justice and a culture of giving, the statement said.
These efforts exemplify the mission, objectives, and judicial framework of the RDC, which strike a balance between legal enforcement and compassionate considerations. The RDC translates directives into practical measures that uphold tolerance and assist individuals who have encountered difficulties in fulfilling their rental obligations, resulting in court rulings against them.
Judge Abdulqader Mousa Mohammed, Chairman of the Rental Disputes Center said, “This valuable support from Tarahum Charity Foundation underscores the depth of our partnership and reflects a firm commitment to serving the community and assisting individuals and families facing rental disputes. We are dedicated to maintaining a fair and humane judicial approach that embodies our leadership’s vision of mercy and alleviating the burdens placed on those in need. We will ensure that this contribution reaches the deserving recipients, providing them with a stable housing environment.”
Dr. Ahmed Thlak, General Director of Tarahum Charity Foundation added, “The donation represents an extension of Tarahum’s mission to empower targeted groups and contribute to family and social stability within Dubai. Through our collaboration with the RDC, we aim to make a tangible impact on the lives of beneficiaries facing real challenges. The Foundation remains committed to this approach, which signifies our values of giving and reinforces the role of institutional partnerships in serving the community.”
The centre will allocate the entire donation to assist social groups in addressing their rental obligations. This will be done in accordance with specific criteria to ensure that the aid reaches eligible citizens and residents in Dubai. The initiative aims to alleviate their financial burdens, enabling them to overcome their current circumstances and restore housing stability, it added.
The Tarahum Charity Foundation previously donated $592,000 to the RDC to cover the rental arrears of 70 individuals – by helping those burdened with rental installments, the initiative addresses their living challenges, the statement concluded.
