Project Rise is the global philanthropic arm of the DawoodiBohra community. As the name suggests, its core objective is to raise and elevate society’s less fortunate in every aspect of life where no individual is neglected, overlooked or marginalized.
The Dawoodi Bohras have called Oman home since more than 50 years and have witnessed rapid developments in each of Oman’s socio-economic sectors. The community members have always sought out opportunities to further support welfare programs, and are grateful to Dar Al Atta’a for the uplifting work they continue to do.
