Just in time for Eid al-Fitr, Amazon is bringing back our annual special edition Eid eGift Card collections for customers in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, brought to life in collaboration with talented artists from the region.
Centred around togetherness, feasts, and gifting between family and friends, Eid al-Fitr celebrates the end of the Holy month of Ramadan fasting. Each design stems from the artists’ interpretations of Eid and brings to life elements from the celebrations, the culture, and the heritage shared across the region, while infusing their own personal attachment to the Holy season.
In Saudi Arabia, Amazon collaborated once again with Aleradah Organisation for Talented People with Disability, an organisation dedicated to uplifting talented people with disabilities across the Kingdom. In the UAE, Amazon collaborated with Mawaheb Art Studio for People of Determination, an organisation committed to supporting people through art classes and workshops.
The Amazon.sa Eid eGift Card designs
This year’s collection enlists two hand-drawn designs from Saudi female artists at Aleradah Organisation, created exclusively for Amazon.sa customers.
One of the designs was created by Ibtissam Bajadber, whose captivating art reflects family gatherings, in the midst of colourful decorations and lights. Mohamadia Zakari’s artwork also joins the collection, depicting the joyous spirit of Eid through popular traditional desserts and treats served for loved ones during the festivities.
Mr. Abdullah Jeraid, Executive Director of Aleradah Organisation, said: ‘‘Eid holds profound significance in Saudi Arabia, and we are thrilled to once again partner with Amazon for this celebration. At Aleradah Organisation, our mission is to empower and elevate talented individuals with disabilities throughout the Kingdom. Through this meaningful collaboration with Amazon, our artists have been given a platform to showcase their creativity and skills in art, with the hope of inspiring diverse communities across the Kingdom during the Eid.’’
The Amazon.ae eGift Card designs
This year’s collection for Amazon.ae customers features two hand-drawn designs from artists at Mahaweb Art Studio.
One of the designs was created by Sara Al Baluchi, whose art consists of a colourful crescent that signifies the beginning of Eid and end of the Holy month of Ramadan. Namrata Pagarani’s artwork also joins the collection, depicting the joyous spirit of Eid through traditional decorations, with a beautiful depiction of pink and purple lanterns.
Wemmy de Maaker, Founder and Director of the Mawaheb Art Studio, said: “Our collaboration with Amazon.ae is a testament to the transformative power of art and inclusion. Since our inception in 2010, Mawaheb has been dedicated to providing a platform for People of Determination to express themselves creatively and develop their skills.
