Anwar El Kamouny, renowned tennis player and founder of the “Hope Givers” campaign, has revealed the reason for Tosca Musk’s recent visit to Egypt. Tosca Musk, a global film producer and sister of billionaire Elon Musk, was in Egypt last week for the launch of the campaign's fourth edition.
El Kamouny explained that the campaign, in collaboration with the Better World Fund and its president Manuel Collas de La Roche, invited Musk to attend the event's opening at the Mövenpick Theatre in Media Production City. The launch featured a performance by Safaa Abu Al-Saud, the campaign's artistic director, and a dinner at the Grand Egyptian Museum. The First Lady of Serbia, Tamara Vučić, was also invited.
"I invited Tosca and other global figures to witness Egypt's achievements and the New Republic," El Kamouny said. Musk spoke at a Women Empowerment session about the importance of women's roles, her self-confidence, and how her films advocate for women's issues and ensure their participation in national development.
During the celebrations, El Kamouny invited Musk and her family to visit the Pyramids and experience the magnificence of ancient Egyptian civilization.
The launch saw participation from notable figures, including UNESCO Peace Ambassador Gillian Clarke, Queen Diambi Kabatusuila from Congo, Isabel Vaxemuth from the World Health Organization, and Manuel Collas from the Better World Fund. The event also featured actress Safaa Abu Al-Saud, the artistic director of the global "Hope Givers" campaign, along with numerous public figures and civil society organizations. Somaya Abu El-Enein, President of the Abou El-Enein Charity Foundation, and Heba Shabana, wife of MP Mohamed Abu El-Enein, were among the speakers.
Other notable attendees included Isabel Vaxemuth, Director of International Projects at the World Health Organization, and Soheir Abdelkader, founder and president of the "Our Children" forum for the arts of people with special abilities.
The campaign aims to spread hope, inspired by El Kamouny's story of overcoming cancer and returning to international tennis ranking after a seven-year struggle. Celebrated by UNESCO and now under its patronage, "Hope Givers" is an annual global campaign supporting millions worldwide, including people with disabilities, cancer fighters, the elderly, heart patients, orphans, and those with mental and psychological illnesses, with participation from over 23 countries.
The campaign continued with a two-day grand celebration at the Grand Egyptian Museum and Mövenpick Theatre, promoting the soon-to-open museum, attended by presidents and kings from around the world.
