In lieu of wedding gifts, Nicole and Ahmed Al Rais would appreciate donations to help fund the start of a non-profit dedicated to the wellbeing of children.

"Donating to this cause would help us start the fundamentals of a lifelong dream to positively contribute to the lives of children. We believe with love and the necessary resources, children can rise to meet their full potential. This matters so much to us, as investing in children means investing in the future. The future generation impacts our policies, culture, safety, environment, and more.

Currently, we are working to open an orphanage in India that provides the infrastructure, education, and the emotional wellbeing required to support children in need. This is  a long term project. If successful, we would love to open more around the world. The initial money raised will go toward start up costs, including lawyer fees and building the actual infrastructure. 

Lasting change takes vision, patience, and hard work. We are asking our closest family and friends to walk with us in the first steps toward our mission to help children rise into their full potential."

- Nicole and Ahmed
