Reading Program (Iqra)
The Foundation adopted the Reading Program which includes a library in each classroom in cooperation with Dar Ibn Khaldun Foundation for Development Cooperation and Education offices in the governorate in this project, in recognition of the importance of Reading and Culture of the learner and the expansion of his awareness. We hope that this project will make a quantum leap in the scientific and cultural level of students.
