Following the Iftar, King Abdullah and Queen Rania toured on Wednesday Mubarat Um Al Hussein Orphanage, where they checked the facilities and services offered to the children who benefit from the Al Aman orphan funds.

Mubarat Um Al Hussein was established five decades ago as the first in Jordan to educate and take care of orphaned boys between the ages of 6-18.

According to Petra News Agency, King Abdullah II paid a visit last week to the Prime Ministry and urged the government to take all necessary measures to address demands of orphans to preserve their dignity and ensure protection for them.
