The International Islamic Relief Organization, Saudi Arabia (IIROSA) recently arranged an Umrah trip for 200 orphans from Jordan.

Ehssan Saleh Taieb, secretary-general of IIROSA, said such trips enhance and develop positive behavior in children who have been deprived of basic physical and emotional necessities.

The secretary-general congratulated Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman for taking over the reins of the country.

“I wish success to King Salman and the team he has appointed for the good of the Arab and Islamic nations, and wish him all the luck to carry out his duties well,” he said.

“IIROSA not only ensures that the orphans receive food, shelter, health and educational assistance but also tries to address their needs through a variety of cultural activities and occasional leisure trips,” he said.

Abdul Karim Al-Musa, director of the International Islamic Relief Organization (IIRO) representative office in Jordan, said: “We don’t just take care of their physical wellbeing; these children deserve to be happy too, and IIROSA tries its best to help them to enjoy and have the fun they deserve.”

He said, “We are thankful to the sponsors for taking care of the orphans and helping to improve their living conditions.”
