Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El Sisi honored on Monday a number of inspiring figures in civil and volunteer work during the first conference of the National Alliance for Civil Development Work (NACDW).
Sisi honored Anissa Hassouna, who passed away six hours before launching the alliance in 2022. Hassnouna was selected as ambassador for the Decent Life initiative.
The list of honorees included Reda Sayed Hassan, who volunteered to educate children on braille, Ahmed Ibrahim, who took part in several volunteering campaigns, and Bassel Mohamed, 22, who passed away after intensively participating in several volunteering campaigns of the Life Makers Foundation.
Among the honorees were Dr. Shereen Amer, who partook in medical convoys across the country over the past 25 years in addition to Ahmed Fouad and Mahmoud Said.
Co-founders of Life Makers Foundation Mohamed Riyad and his spouse Jihan Ramadan, who passed away, were also honored.
