About Ataa
About Ataa Charitable Investment Fund for Persons with Disabilities
Ataa Fund is a non-profit charitable joint-stock company and is considered the first charitable investment fund in Egypt dedicated to supporting persons with disabilities.
Ataa Fund revives the concept of charitable investment endowment, whereby individuals, legal entities, and companies contribute funds to the Fund through purchasing certificates.
The returns and profits generated from investing these funds are allocated exclusively to social and charitable purposes related to disability, ensuring financial sustainability and long-term impact.
Projects are designed and implemented through registered civil society organizations, licensed non-governmental organizations, governmental entities, or affiliated bodies involved in charitable activities serving persons with disabilities.
Our Mission
We work to empower persons with disabilities to live independent and dignified lives through inclusive environments that enable them to thrive and participate fully in society.
Our Vision
We aspire to an inclusive society that empowers persons with disabilities to live independently, enjoy full access to their rights, and have equal opportunities across all aspects of life, alongside their peers without disabilities.
