Manlift Power has donated a generator to the Al Manzil Centre for Challenged Individuals in Sharjah to help it cope with the power outages in the emirate as summer approaches.

The Al Manzil Centre provides a professional care-giving and learning environment for individuals with special needs. Due to the persistent power cuts, the centre became hot, humid and hazardous, with no cooling or lighting.

When Manlift employees heard how the children’s schedules had been disrupted, and how the conditions were causing them discomfort, they swiftly deployed a 200 kVA Ingersoll-Rand generator set to power the centre’s facilities.

Ayesha Saeed Husaini Managing Director of the Al Manzil Centre remarked: “You cannot imagine what a relief it is to have this generator.” This is the second year that Manlift Power has donated a rental generator to the Al Manzil Centre for the hot summer season.

“We first heard about the Al Manzil Centre in 2009. It was brought to my attention that they had been affected by the Sharjah power shortage, and naturally we contacted the centre to see if Manlift could be of assistance,” said Manlift Power regional director Adam Ashcroft.

“We evaluated the centre’s requirements and supplied a 200 kVA generator to get them through the summer. Charity centres such as Al Manzil need our support; they provide a fantastic facility for children with special needs. Although this requirement stems from unfortunate circumstances, we are honoured to be given another opportunity to help out again this year.”
