During the ceremony, Moamen received a financial award in appreciation of his efforts and success, underscoring Mountain View’s dedication to supporting exceptional athletes and highlighting the role of sports in nurturing ambition, perseverance, and leadership among youth.

Major General Abu Bakr El Gendy emphasized that supporting sports champions is a core part of the foundation’s social responsibility and its mission to nurture promising Egyptian talent.
